Introduction to Sociology / Q&A (11/7) / Mingyeong KIm

Q. Some theorists argue that the growing inequality in some countries could lead to emergence of charismatic leaders and revolutions. Do you think this could happen?

I think inequality is in every society that has different degree. When the degree of such inequalities is so high that many victims are born and society is no longer able to constitute it, people become aware of the seriousness and form an anti-social group. Because there is a need for a person to lead the group in it, the leader comes out, and the group moves to become a better society through revolution.
