Why We Should Care About Global Inequality
The Social Construction of Gender
The society we live in has created the social construction of gender since it does not exist naturally as an independent entity but with people believing in its existence. Being born a man or a woman in any society is not just biological but also has some social aspects. These are cultural ethics and norms that govern us, the way we relate to one another, and to the world with clear indication of the dos and dont. Women as a type of gender form a social unit in their on way which begun as a natural fact, not anything related to feminine.
Religion
Religion is a term used to define ethics of life, beliefs and practices, rituals and faith in supernatural powers that is normally known to be in charge of the happenings in the universe, peoples lives and their wellbeing from the time of creation. Religion varies depending on the affiliation of the person and the region where one comes from. For example Christianity, Jainism, Hinduism, Islamic, Buddhism, Judaism and many others.
Political power
Political power is the term that describes the capacity of a person or group of people in charge to have the ability to make decisions and influence the policies in place to suit hishertheir interest(s).Its the ability to influence the way people behave with or without any objection. This power is mostly misused by the person(s) in authority just for a particular interest not that of the entire country or party. The person in authority is normally elected by the people to represent them on official matters of governance as per their wishes and the constitution.
Urbanization issues
Urbanization is the growth of a rural settlement to an urban area physically due to high population and industrialization which leads to congestion. There are benefits to the environment and a lot of problems as a result of this growth as far as economic and environmental aspects are concerned. These include poverty, unemployment, and poor infrastructural networks, lack of water and sewerage system, pollution and housing problems. This is as a result of high rate of people moving to urban areas than development of infrastructure and social amenities. When there is a well detailed plan for the cities, putting all the present and future demands in to consideration, then the environment will benefit by reducing pollution. It is estimated that half of the worlds population live in urban areas hence this raises concerns over the available resources and the administrative units.
