Abstract

The analysis "Inequality as a Megatrend of the 21st Century" by Dimitrios L. Margellos and Berthold M. Kuhn addresses the topic of inequality on a global and national level. It is noted that inequality between countries is tending to decrease, while it is increasing within many societies, especially in Western countries. The analysis emphasizes the need for a fairer distribution of resources to counteract populist reactions. Examples such as the election of Gabriel Boric as president in Chile and the deep polarization between Lula and Bolsonaro in Brazil are mentioned. The analysis also highlights the dangers of inequality, such as lower social cohesion and lower GDP growth. Possible steps that states and international organizations can take to reduce inequality and create a good life for all are outlined. [Extracted from the article]
