Seminar paper from the year 2023 in the subject Psychology - Social Psychology, grade: 1,7, University of Cologne, course: Theoretical Foundations of Social and Economic Psychology, language: English, abstract: This paper explores the pervasive societal belief in meritocracy as an antidote to social inequalities, widely endorsed by politicians and Americans alike.
