Answer is False.

Explanation:

Social Darwinism is known to be a theory which was developed in the western Europe and North America around 18th and 19th centuries.

This theory is explained by social Darwinist as the survival of the fittest. this means that most of the powerful people in a particular society are able to become powerful because they are the natives of that society, meaning that they have been existing from birth in that society.

In this case, social Darwinism does not mean the process of alleviating poverty to ensure the survival of the community, but the ability of the natives to become powerful, possibly, at the detriment of others in a community.
