Social Class Theory

Social class is a classification of humans in the form of classification that is not equal to social groups. If social groups are more emphasis on grouping people on the basis of differences which are horizontal, but in human social classes are grouped on the basis of vertical collective qualification differences. Vertical social classification, humans are grouped according to their respective classes such as upper, middle and lower class.

As economic, human beings are grouped according to property ownership, so that a person possessing possessions in large capacities such as corporations, large farms, cars, mansions and so forth may be called the upper classes, but if the possessions possessed are only categorized more than adequate but not abundant, then it can be mentioned in the middle class group and for those who have less than enough wealth will be classified in lower class groups.

The problem that occurs in the social life of this society is why it is always there in the classification of social classes. In his life, no human wants life in life, they always try to get it. From such a struggle it will eventually appear to be divided into the social class according to what it has gained after its struggle. Working hard and stocking of his skills or skills, he will occupy a certain social class based on the wealth he earns.
