a set of factors that affect the emergence of discrimination as a social phenomenon. These include:
1) Personal biases and prejudices: Based on preconceived beliefs or prejudices against others.
2) Cultural and social differences: A lack of understanding or intolerance of differences can lead to unfair treatment.
3) Competition for resources: for example, for work or education, where a certain group is considered as a potential competitor.
4) Institutional customs and traditions: laws or policies that reinforce bias against certain groups.
5) Ignorance and lack of knowledge: Failure to objectively assess the capabilities of another group increases the likelihood of discrimination.
