Chociaż badanie nierówności ekonomicznych znane jest w historii myśli ekonomicznej, to obecnie problematyka ta stała się ponownie niezwykle aktualna. Z jednej strony w aspekcie przyczyn i skutków kryzysu gospodarczego końca XXI w. powstaje pytanie czy rosnące nierówności były również jedną z przyczyn kryzysu, czy z drugiej strony to zjawiska kryzysowe powodują bardziej nierównomierny rozkład dochodów. Poza tym wątpliwości budzi rola redystrybucji w zmniejszaniu nierówności dochodowych. Głównym celem badawczym jest identyfikacja kierunków zmian w zakresie nierówności dochodowych w okresie pokryzysowym oraz zbadanie związku pomiędzy redystrybucją a poziomem nierówności w badanch krajach.

Although the study of economic inequalities is known in the history of economic thought, nowadays the problem has become extremely new. On the one hand, in the aspect of the causes and effects of the economic crisis of the 21st century, the question arises whether rising inequalities were also one of the causes of the crisis, or on the other hand, the crisis was the reason of a more unequal distribution of income. In addition, doubts are aroused by the role of redistribution in reducing national income. The article attempts to find answers to such research questions. The main research objective is to identify trends in changes in income inequality during the post-crisis period.

In a letter published on March 30, 2021, 24 world leaders have called for global solidarity in the fight against the Covid-19 pandemic. This commitment to act in solidarity with low-income countries however was won under duress, and it was in part at least self-serving. Can this still be called solidarity? On the basis of a functional view on solidarity the paper argues that states can indeed act in solidarity, if they accept costs to assist others with whom they recognize similarity in a relevant respect. States can act in solidarity, or they can fail to act in solidarity, also in situations of duress and if solidary acts also serve their own interests. The paper concludes that if this is true for the Covid-19 pandemic it is also true for the climate crisis, where damage of even much bigger dimensions are to be prevented. Also in regard to anthropogenic global heating, nobody is safe until everyone is safe.

The study attempts to analyze the implications of the war in Ukraine for the issues of development and inequalities in the BRICS block. The so-called “emerging economies” play an essential role in the global system, both in economic and political terms. The article compares the political and economic backgrounds of Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa, their development, the “status quo” and their future aspirations, and analyses how the war in Ukraine may change the global development scenario. It is essential after the BRICS summit in South Africa invited six new members to the group. The article is rooted in complexity theory, supported by a mixed methodology approach. We show how the given research methodology, informed by complexity theory, can furnish new insights into global sustainability. The statistical method was used to gauge the correlation-regression impact of inequalities in BRICS countries on their sustainable development. The analysis allows several conclusions to be ventured: sustainable development is closely linked to inequalities and vice versa; the war has had a significant, multidimensional impact on the development paths and inequalities in the BRICS countries, which potentially could worsen, and the war is a major shocking event that can lead to global system changes and implications which are broader than merely for the subregion.
