Static segregation refers to the separation of individuals or groups based on certain characteristics, such as race, ethnicity, or socioeconomic status, that is maintained through fixed or unchanging structures or systems. This can include physical separation in housing, education, or employment, as well as social or cultural barriers that prevent interaction between different groups. Static segregation is often a result of historical or systemic inequalities and can perpetuate disparities and marginalization.
