Equality and Difference

The nature of equality and difference

Students develop an understanding of the nature of equality and difference through:• considering the nature of difference in societies and cultures, including the hybrid nature of societies and cultures
• considering aspects of commonality and difference in societies and cultures
• considering unequal access to socially valued resources for health care, housing, education, employment and the justice system

Consider equality in Australia by investigating:
• the meaning of equality
• the extent to which the ideal of equality is shared by all Australians
• equal access to resources
• equal outcomes for all
• inequality and its consequences, by examining different outcomes experienced by people including:
– from different ‘racial’ or ethnic groups
– who follow different belief systems and cultural practices
– with a disability
– living in urban and rural environments
– of different ages

Examine ways to reduce inequality:
• legislation introduced to reduce inequality – local, national and global
• affirmative action policies
• community initiatives
• welfare systems

Examine individual and group commonality and difference:
• the similarities that exist between people from different social and cultural groups
• the perception of groups by other groups within society
• influences on individuals’ perceptions of others
• how members of groups see themselves
• how attitudes of group members towards other groups influence behaviour
• the role and influence of historical, political and legal forces in the generation and maintenance of social inequality, prejudice and discrimination in Australian society and culture
• the extent to which inequality is institutionalised
