Yes, social class continues to play a significant role in the 21st century in areas such as education, job opportunities, healthcare access, and overall quality of life. Factors like income, occupation, and education level still influence a person's social mobility and opportunities for success.
Yes, social class continues to be important as it can impact access to resources, opportunities, and quality of life. It can also influence one's social networks, relationships, and overall well-being.

A synonym for social class could be "socioeconomic status" or "social stratum."
No, social class does not determine a person's character. A person's character is shaped by a combination of factors such as upbringing, personal experiences, values, and beliefs, rather than solely by social class.
In 1945, social class was still heavily stratified, with a clear distinction between the upper, middle, and lower classes. The upper class consisted of the wealthy elite, while the middle class typically included professionals and skilled workers. The lower class was made up of manual laborers and those living in poverty. Social mobility was limited, with individuals often remaining in the class they were born into.
Marxism can still provide valuable insights into understanding history in modern society, particularly in analyzing class struggles and social inequalities. However, it is important to consider other perspectives and approaches given the complexity of contemporary societies. Incorporating diverse viewpoints can offer a more comprehensive understanding of historical processes and social dynamics.

Social Security is important today because it prevents the applications in which the President can take from a Credit Card Holder. A Social Security holds one's identity and cannot be replaced.
In some areas, yes. A young man from Southern Egypt mutilated himself a few years ago because he wanted to marry a lower-class girl, and his parents forbade it....in that area, it was still common to have semi-arranged marriages with someone of the same social class.
Yes, distinct social classes were prominent during the time She Stoops to Conquer was set (18th century England). The play highlighted the divide between the upper class (such as the Hardcastles) and the lower class (such as Tony Lumpkin). Social status and class distinctions played a significant role in the interactions and plot development of the play.
That is not true; people that are in power are only one factor. An example to illustrate is, the US has a black President but racism still exists in the country. In some places more than others and in some places less. Many other social elements affect the perceptions that have nothing to do with who has power (or money). Perhaps over the past century it has become more common for people to think for them self and ignore the groups of people who still view others by class. As world communication between everyday people increases (internet), there will be very little class distinction left in the world within another century.
depends on where you go, and what social class.
Yes, the patricians did share plenty of power with the plebeians. Think of the office of tribune, who was a plebeian and could veto any legislation or resolution that the patricians put forward.
Actually it does. Not an actual, physical social class, but a mental one. Lets use a public school as an example. They have preppies,jocks,geeks, then outcasts. The preppies usually only associate with other preppies, the jocks only hang with other jocks, the geeks chill with other geeks, and the outcasts (the lowest"class") only chat with other outcasts. Catch my drift? (understand)?
Birth: the family you were born in. Later in life, a good education and a succesful career can take you up into a higher social class. But someone born into a socially high-end family will usually still be considered a member of his family's social class even if he or she is not much of an achiever.
