Sociopoly ObjectivesTo encourage students to think carefully, critically, analytically and empathetically about social inequality, particularly social class and poverty, and to help students:
1.Understand the structural constraints that govern economic choices;
2.Recognise that economic failure is usually not linked to individual or character defects;
3.Realise that social inequality is rooted in economic position, power and the availability of resources.
Jessop 2001:103
