100%

39% of California’s population is constituted by Hispanics (both U.S. born and immigrants). a. Is California's decision to have English as its sole official language (as of 1986) an exercise of domination by the English-speaking majority over the Spanish-speaking minority? b. How would Marx analyze the scenario?

Expert Solution

Step 1

Unity in diversity is a common term that is popular in most nations around the world, where we see how culturally diverse a state is but at the same time it is united through common beliefs and motives. In this answer, we are looking at how California despite having a huge Hispanic population adopted English as the official language under Proposition 63 where English is adopted as the common language of the State. Whether this is a form of domination and how will Marx's theory of conflict and class struggle be applied here is the basis of this answer.
