Assignment Task: Structural Analysis and Transformation
The first principle of a social welfare program guided by radical structuralism is to conduct a thorough analysis of the underlying structural factors that contribute to social inequities and disparities. This analysis should identify the systemic and institutional barriers that perpetuate poverty, inequality, and marginalization. The program should aim to address these root causes by advocating for structural changes in policies, laws, and institutions to create more just and equitable society. This principle emphasizes the need to challenge and transform the structural systems that perpetuate social injustices.
