Abstract

The paper provides an overview of global, regional and a national income inequality based on the latest distribution of data from the World Bank, World Economic Forum (WEF) and Eurostat and discusses the negative implications of rising income inequality as one of the biggest political, economic and social problems in the globalized world. Not only does inequality slow economic growth, but it results in social and health problems and generates political instability. Paper advocates for urgent policy changes at national and international levels to ensure more balanced world development. In all sections of society, there is growing agreement that the world is becoming more unequal, and that today’s disparities and their likely trajectory are dangerous.

Key words: economic inequality, globalization, income, poverty
