Inequality

By Paul Spicker. 2020

There is a strong link between poverty and inequality, and some concepts, including class and economic distance, effectively treat poverty as a form of inequality. Poverty is not inequality, and inequality is not poverty, but they are closely related, and at times it can be difficult to tell them apart. Almost every instance of poverty is also an instance of disadvantage.
