Answer to Question 1

Social class refers to large numbers of people who share specific characteristics and social location. According to Weber, social class is a large group of people who rank close to one another in wealth, prestige, and power. Marx divided social class based on one's access to the means of production. Those who owned it were the capitalists or bourgeoisie, and those who sold their labor to the capitalists were the workers or proletariat.

Answer to Question 2

The small world phenomenon was confirmed. Milgram concluded that on average, just six individuals separate everyone in the United States. More recently, research on 250 million people who exchanged chat messages on the Internet showed a link of less than seven, and a study of 700 million people on Facebook showed a connection of less than five.
