| description |
There are inequalities in the world,
among individuals and among groups that get reproduced
across generations. In the World Development Report 2006
these are referred to as inequality traps. Inequality traps
are similar to poverty traps in that they serve to keep
people poor and destitute. But equality traps differ from
poverty traps in that they refer to a reinforcing system of
economic, political and social structures that lead to what
social scientists have called durable inequality. |
