- 1. Clects
- 2. Prismatic society
- 3. Achievement rather than attainment as the basis of posting
- 4. Formalism
A1, 2 and 4 ✓ Correct
B1, 3 and 4
C2 and 4
D1, 2 and 3
Correct answer: (A) 1, 2 and 4 — Items 1, 2 and 4 are related to the Sala model, so the answer is 1, 2 and 4.
Explanation
★Items 1, 2 and 4 are related to the Sala model, so the answer is 1, 2 and 4.
★Clects are a feature of the prismatic society in Riggs' model.
★The prismatic society is the central idea of the Sala model.
★Formalism, the gap between the formal and the real, is a key feature.
★Item 3 is wrong, because in the prismatic society attainment, not achievement, guides posting.
★Achievement and expertise guide posting in the developed, refracted society.
★So only the achievement-based claim is incorrect for the prismatic case.
