Answer 1

Social stratification occurs due to the structural inequalities evolving along with social institutions. With the recent cases of terrorism in Pakistani society, this society has been stratified into various social classes based on income, cast, power, and income. There are multiple ways in which one can identify the social stratification factors in Pakistani from the incidences of terrorism. For example, individuals that have acquired more power in this society are able to protect their interests. On the other hand, the lack of education attainment and low-income levels has offered a fertile ground in which men and women are recruited into terrorism. Moreover, individuals from the lower cast are more affected by terrorism in Pakistani and are shunned more by society.
