overall argument of the chapter that you identified in question I. (Sections: "structure as distribution: who gets what";
Answer
The section “Structure as Distribution: Who Gets What” discusses how the distribution of resources and opportunities in society is structured by the power dynamics of the dominant group. It argues that the dominant group has the power to determine who gets what resources and opportunities, and that this power is maintained through the use of various forms of control. This section supports the overall argument of the chapter that power dynamics are the primary determinant of who gets what in society. It shows how the dominant group is able to maintain its power by controlling the distribution of resources and opportunities, and how this power is used to maintain the status quo.
