inequality
含义: The state of being unequal, especially in terms of status, rights, opportunities, or the distribution of wealth and resources within a society.
Inequality is a dominant theme in contemporary social and political discourse. Income inequality, wealth inequality, health inequality, and educational inequality are all areas of active research and policy debate. Thomas Piketty's work on capital and inequality has influenced global discussion. In mathematics, inequality has a precise meaning — a relationship between two values that are not equal. In British politics, 'levelling up' was coined as a response to regional inequalities.
