Summary/Abstract: Discrimination is a form of social practice which is generally based on prejudices and stereotypes, deeply rooted in a society’s culture. Such practice results in formal or informal forms of segregation, marginalisation or social exclusion of an individual or a group. It puts them in an unfavourable situation and pushes them to the edge of society, either physically or symbolically.
