Question

What are some social struggles that plagued new civilizations that still plague us today?

Answer 1

Answer:

The plebeian revolutions and the struggles for the rights of the natives are two examples of social struggles of ancient civilizations that can be seen today.

Explanation:

There are many social struggles that have plagued ancient civilizations, but they can be seen plaguing current civilization. Two examples of this are the plebeian revolution (which took place in Greece) and the struggle for the rights of the natives (which took place on the American continent).

The plebeian revolution was a struggle against social inequality and the exploitation that the lower social classes suffered from the higher social classes. In a capitalist society like ours and with serious problems of social inequality, we know that this exploitation still takes place and that it is very harmful for people who are in situations of social and economic vulnerability.

Regarding the fight for the rights of the natives, we know that they too were exploited, stolen and disqualified in relation to white individuals. This is currently happening intensely. Countries like Brazil, for example, have projects to expropriate indigenous reserves in the name of aggressive and degrading agribusiness.
