Inequalities can lead to conflict by fostering resentment and frustration among those who feel marginalized. Economic, social, and political disparities create power imbalances, making certain groups feel disadvantaged or oppressed. This sense of injustice can drive marginalized communities to demand change, sometimes through protest or civil unrest, thus escalating into conflicts. Bridging these gaps through fair policies and open dialogues can help in reducing tensions.
