Social inequality profoundly influences political participation, as disadvantaged groups often face barriers that inhibit their involvement in the political process. Individuals from lower socioeconomic backgrounds may encounter obstacles such as limited access to education, resources, and information, which undermines their ability to engage politically. This disparity can lead to underrepresentation in political decision-making, perpetuating cycles of inequality. Conversely, higher socioeconomic status typically correlates with greater political activity and influence. Addressing social inequality is essential to ensuring that all voices are heard and that political systems genuinely reflect the diversity of the population.
