Theoretical Models of Equity

Theoretical models of equity explore how fairness and justice are perceived and structured in society. They examine different ways to distribute resources, opportunities, and rights, emphasizing dimensions like equality (everyone gets the same), equity (resources are distributed based on need), and fairness (perceptions of just treatment). These models help us understand societal dynamics, inform policies, and address disparities. They acknowledge that fairness can be influenced by cultural, social, and individual factors, and aim to create systems that promote just and equitable outcomes for all members of society.
