Solutions Inequality. The Issue of Our Time

    • Society & Culture

In this episode we learn inequality is not just a personal experience of extreme poverty or exorbitant wealth, there are wider effects of inequality on political stability and social cohesion. What starts in the economy as income and wealth inequality radiate through society and politics in ways that generate polarization. We examine more closely the balance between the state, the market and society and ask what effect inequality has on social democracy? What effect can social democracy have on addressing inequality? This final episode explores how public policy can be used to improve inequality.
