Abstract
- The article discusses the need for the government to prioritize the reduction of inequality in Europe. It is stated that economic inequality within European Union (EU) countries has been exaggerated by the recession with the rise of income inequality, unemployment and poverty. It notes that inequality should be measured as if it were in a single country to tackle the social and regional policies in a much more integrated way. It also mentions the effects of inequality on economic growth.
