Welcome back to THE IAS COMPANION. Follow us on YouTube: www.youtube.com/@IASCompanion. Today’s lecture will explore the intricate concepts of prejudice, intergroup conflict, and social integration—key elements in understanding the dynamics of social relationships, the roots of discrimination, and the ways we can build a more inclusive society. We will define prejudice, discuss its characteristics, and explore its harmful manifestations. Then, we’ll examine the causes and consequences of intergroup conflict, identifying the factors that lead to clashes between groups. Finally, we’ll focus on social integration, understanding its importance and the strategies necessary to create a cohesive and inclusive community. These topics are crucial for recognizing the challenges in intergroup relations and finding paths toward a more unified and equitable society. #UPSC #IASprep #civilserviceexam #IASexamination #IASaspirants #UPSCjourney #IASexam #civilservice #IASgoals #UPSC2024 #IAS2024 #civilservant #IAScoaching #aUPSCmotivation #IASmotivation #UPSCpreparation #IASpreparation #UPSCguide #IASguide #UPSCtips #IAS #UPSCbooks #IASbooks #UPSCexamstrategy #IASexamstrategy #UPSCmentorship #IASmentorship #UPSCcommunity #IAScommunity #UPSCpreparation #IASpreparation #UPSCguide #IASguide #UPSCtips #IAStips #UPSCbooks #IASbooks #UPSCexamstrategy #IASexamstrategy #UPSCmentorship #IASmentorship #UPSCcommunity #IAScommunity
