Political power directly affects social equity by determining how resources are allocated and whose interests are prioritized in governance. When power is concentrated in the hands of a few, marginalized communities may face systemic inequality and lack access to essential services. Conversely, equitable representation in political power can lead to policies that promote social justice, education, and healthcare for all. Moreover, the distribution of political power shapes societal norms and values, influencing how different demographic groups can assert their rights and advocate for their needs in the political arena.
