This open access book offers a balanced, readable introduction to key topics around inequality across the globe.
Inequality matters-and yet, despite an explosion of research and debate, it remains one of the most contested issues of our time. Is it rising or falling? Why do expert analyses often clash? And how can non-specialists make sense of the evidence? Too often, discussions focus narrowly on wealthy Western countries, overlooking also urgent realities in Africa, Asia, and Latin America.
This book tackles those gaps, combining expert synthesis of the scholarly literature with new findings from @EQUAL, a major research consortium project spanning institutions in the Global North and South. Through vivid examples-particularly from Colombia, Ethiopia, Mozambique, South Africa, and Vietnam-it examines how inequality is measured, understood, and acted upon across diverse contexts.
Rejecting one-size-fits-all solutions, it advocates nuanced, practical, and transformative approaches rooted in context, values, and evidence. Making complex research accessible, this open-access book equips readers with essential knowledge and tools to confront inequality worldwide.
