"In this paper, an effort has been made to raise questions regarding the inevitability and positive functionality of stratification, or institutionalized social inequality in rewards, allocated in accordance with some notion of the greater and lesser functional importance of various positions... Some negative functions, or dysfunctions, of institutionalized social inequality have been tentatively identified reavealing the mixed character of the outcome of social stratification, and casting doubt on the contention that 'social inequality is thus an unconsciously evolved device by which society insure that the most important positions are conscientiously filled by the most qualified persons' ".
