INTRODUCTION

2
Global Inequality refers to the unequal distribution of resources,

opportunities, and wealth among individuals, groups, and nations

worldwide. It encompasses various dimensions, including: Economic

Inequality, Social Inequality etc.

Global Inequality can be discussed in relation to differences in social

and economic measurements of development. Examples of global

Inequality would be the differences in these measures between

‘developed,’ ‘developing,’ and ‘underdeveloped’ countries.

An industrialized or developed nation has a more developed economy

and technological infrastructure than other countries.

A developing country is a country with a less developed industrial

base.

A country that is ‘Undeveloped’ would be one that economically has

low levels of economic output, consumption and wealth.

Inequalities are not only driven and measured by income, but are

determined by other factors- gender, age, origin, ethnicity, disability,

sexual orientation, class, and religion. These factors determine

inequalities of opportunity which continue to persist, within and

between countries.

Measurement of global inequality

The measurement of global inequality involves various indicators that

assess disparities in wealth, income, access to resources, and overall

well-being across different countries and populations. There are same

of the key methods and indices used to measure global inequality.

(1) Income Inequality

(a) Gini-coefficient (or index) : This is the most widely used measure of

income inequality. It ranges from (perfect equality) to perfect

inequality . A higher gini-coefficient indicates a higher level of

inequality.

b) Income Quintiles

This divides the population into five equal parts based on income,

measuring the share of income received by the richest 20% versus the

poorest 20%.

c) The Index:

A statistic that looks at both between group and within-group

inequality. It is useful for understanding inequality at different levels

(such as between countries and within countries).

2) Wealth inequality

4
a) Wealth Distribution:

Measures how wealth is distributed among the population, often

showing a disparity between the richest and the poorest individuals or

households.

b) THE MET WEALTH INDEX:

This index looks at household assets mines liabilities (debts), giving a

more complete picture of wealth compared to income measures.

3. HUMAN DEVELOPMENT INDEX (HDI)

a) HDI combines indicators of life expectancy, education (mean years

of schooling and expected years of schooling), and income (GNI per

capital) to provide a broader measure of development and inequality.

It can reveal disparities in health and education along with economic

measures

b) Inequality-adjusted HDI (HDI): Adjusts the HDI for inequality in each

of three dimensions (health, education and income).

4. POVERTY INDICATORS

a) Global poverty rate: The percentage of the population living below

the international poverty line (typically set at $1.% per day as defined

by the world bank).

5
b) Multidimensional poverty index (MPI): Measures poverty using

factors begond income, such as education, living standards, and

health. It provides a deeper understanding of poverty in terms of well-

being and access to services.

5. THEIL INDEX

Teil Index is a measure of economic inequality that decomposes

inequality into within-group and between-group inequality within

countries and between regions or nations.

6. PALMA RATIO

Palma Ratio focuses on the ratio of the top 10% of the population to

the bottom 40%. This measure highlights the extremes of income

inequality.

7. International comparisons (example GOF capita)

a) Gross Domestic product (GDP) per capita measures the economic

output per person in a country. While useful for comparing economic

well-being between nations, it does not reflect income inequality within

countries.

6
b) Purchasing power parity (PPP) adjust GDP to account for differences

in cost of living and inflation rates between countries, offering a more

accurate comparison of living standards.

8) Employment and education disparities

a) Unemployment Rate: Differences in unemployment rates across

countries can indicate levels of inequality in economic opportunities

b) Educational Attainment: Disparities in education, such as

differences in school enrollment or literacy rates contribute

significantly to global inequality.

Gender inequity: index measures inequality across dimensions Like

reproduce health, empowerment, and labour force participation

highlighting disparities between men and women.

10. Global Distribution of wealthy:

Wealth distribution examines how wealth is spread across the global

population studies often show that wealth is highly concentrated in a

small number of individual or natives.

CONCLUSION:

These indicators collectively help to understand the extent and nature

global inequality whether it is based on income, wealth, opportunities

7
or human development. Various organizations such as the world Bank,

UNOP and OECD, compile and analyze these data to shape policies at

reducing inequality.

b. Historical trends and patterns of global inequality: Global

inequality has evolved over time, influenced by economic political

and social factors. While inequality between countries has fluctuated

the gap between rich and poor has changed significantly throughout

history. There is an overview of the key historical trends and patterns

of global inequality.

1. Pre-Industrial revolution (before 1750)

a. Small global Gap: Prior to the industrial revolution, global

inequality was relatively small because most societies had similar

levels of economic development. The majority of people lived in

agrarian economics with limited technological advancements

b. Local Inequality: Inequality was more pronounced within societies

wit elites or aristocracies centrality wealth and land, but the overall

difference between countries were minimal.

2. The industrial revolution (1750-1900)

8
a) The Rise of Industrial Nations: The Industrial Revolution,

beginning Britain and spreading to Western Europe and North

American, marked the first significant rise in global inequality. As

industrialist countries rapidly advanced, they created substantial

wealth which led to a widening gap between them and less-developed

nations, particularly in Africa, Asia and latin America.

B) Colonialism and Exploitation:

During this period, European colonial powers expanded their empires

across much of Africa, Asia and the Americas. Colonies were exploited

for resources, leading to uneven development between the colonizes

and the colonized. This further exacerbated global inequality.

a)First major Divergence: The economic and technological

advancements of industrial nations began to significantly out

space these of other regions, creating the first major divergence

in global wealth and standards of living.

3. The 20th Century: The rise of global inequality

a) World Wars and the great Depression: The early 20thcentury was

marked by significantly upheaval including two world wars and the

Great Depression. While these event caused widespread economic

9
hardship , the post war period also market the beginning of significant

structural changes in the global economy.

b) Post War Economic Boom: After World War 11, many Western

Countries especially the united states and Western Europe experienced

an economic boom, characterized by rapid industrialization, the

expansion of trade, and technological growth and economic

development.

c) De- Colonization and New Nation States: Following the second

World War, many countries in African and Asia gained independence

from colonial power. However, many of these newly independent

nations faced significant challenges bulling their economics, leading to

persistent inequality between the global North (industrialized nations)

and the global south (Developing nations).

d) The Cold War and ideological Divides: The ideological battle

between capitalist and socialist systems during the cold war led to

varying economic policies across the world. Western capitalist

countries saw economic growth, while socialist economies like the

soviet Union and China followed different paths with varying degrees of

success and challenges.

10
4. Late 20th century to early 21st century: Globalization and Rising

inequality.

a) Globalization (1980s-2000s)

The latter part of the 20 th century witnessed a significant increase in

globalization. Trade, investment and technology linked economies in

new ways, leading to rapid economic growth, in some parts of the

world, notably.

5. 21st century (2000s-Present)

a) Technological revolution and the knowledge Economy: The

rise of digital technologies, information- based economies, and

automation has created new opportunities and challenges.

b) Increase inequality within countries: Despite global economic

growth, income inequality has risen sharply in many developed

countries, particularly the US and parts of Europe.

c) Global Inequality Dynamics: Inequality between nations has

narrowed somewhat, with some emerging economic experiencing

growth.

d) Climate Change and Resource Inequality: The urging global

challenges of climate change, resource scarcity and environmental

11
degradation disproportionately affect the poorest

countries and communities reinforcing patterns of global inequality

FACTORS CONTRIBUTING TO GLOBAL INEQUALITY

Global inequality is driven by a variety of factors each influencing

different aspects of life across countries. These factors often

interconnected create and reinforce global inequality making it

challenging for marginalized countries to break the cycle of poverty

and underdevelopment some of the key contributors include:

a) Economic Factors

i) Unequal Distribution of Resources

ii) Global trade system

iii) Debt

b) Political factors

i) Colonialism

ii) Corruptions

iii) Political stability

C) Social Factors

i) Education and Healthcare Access

ii) Social Scarification

12
iv) Technology and Innovation

d) Environmental factors

I) Climate Change

ii) Resources Depletion

UNDERSTANDING THE COSMOPOLITANISM DEFINITION

Cosmopolitanism is a word derived from the greek root of

‘cosmo‘ and ‘polit‘, meaning ‘universe‘ and ‘citizen‘ respectively .

Thus, a literal translation would be “a philosophy of the citizen of

the universe”. As applied in philosophy, cosmopolitanism is

defined as all people of the world being seen and treated as

equals in one global community.

WHAT IS COSMOPOLITANISM ?

13
Cosmopolitanism is the belief that people of the world belong

to a collective community of humanity, regardless of country,

language, race, politics, finances or any other attributes.

Therefore, a cosmopolitan is a person who believes all humans

are equal and should be treated as such, solely based on the fact

that they are human. The meaning of cosmopolitanism in

philosophy was established by the stoics philosophers as a moral

and anti-political belief that all humans are equals in the world,

regardless of their origin. As such every human should treated as

a member of a global community according to this belief.

on equal respect for all people and the idea that as a global

community, we are custodians of the environment.

collective interest, which can be difficult to practice.

4. There has been an outgoing debates about the meaning and

scope of cosmopolitanism, which hinders the implementation.

5. There are economic differences between nations and individual

which limits access to resources, opportunities and social

services.

26
ROLES OF POWER DYNAMICS AND GEOPOLITICAL

REALITIES

Roles of power dynamics:

1. The international institution and global governance structure

can reinforce the existing power dynamics with some nations

holding more influence than others.

2. Cosmopolitanism can involve resistance to dominant power

structures and its challenges the existing inequalities.

3. Power dynamics can affect who has access to these right and

responsibilities of global citizenship.

4. Cosmopolitanism must consider intersectional power

dynamics, including the intersection of race, class, sexuality,

gender etc.

5. Cosmopolitanism can promote global citizenship but it

requires the complexities of power dynamics.

27
ROLES OF GEOPOLITICAL REALITIES:

1. The international law provides a framework for

cosmopolitanism, but its enforcement is often inconsistent.

2. Nations prioritize their sovereignty and interest which can

limit the scope of cosmopolitanism.

creates tension and conflicts.

SUMMARY OF KEY POINTS AND ARGUMENTS

Cosmopolitanism which essentially means citizens of the world, is

a philosophical perspective that emphasizes the equal moral

worth of all individual regardless of their nationality or geographic

location, while global inequality refers to the vast disparities in

wealth, income, and across to basic needs across different

28
regions and countries; they key point of tension between these

concepts lies in how a cosmopolitan world view might address

and seek to alleviate global inequality by advocating for global

justice, international cooperation and shared responsibility for

well-being of all people, potentially challenging the power

dynamics that perpetuate such inequalities between nations.

KEY POINTS ABOUT COSMOPOLITANISM AND GLOBAL

INEQUALITY:

national borders are artificial barriers that can hinder the action

to address them.

national sovereignty and neglecting the importance of local

identities and cultural diversity.

29
4. Core tenet of cosmopolitanism: Individual should be seen as

part of a global community with shared moral obligation, not just

citizens of their nation states.

POTENTIAL SOLUTIONS FOR GLOBAL INEQUQLITY FROM A

COSMOPOLITAN PERSECTIVE:

1. International institutions and cooperation: strengthening global

governance mechanisms to address issues like poverty climate

change and unequal distribution of resources..

2. Global tax regime: implementing fair taxation systems to

redistribute wealth from richer to poorer nations.

sometimes be hypocritical, as individuals may espouse

cosmopolitan values while not actively working to dismantle the

systems that perpetuate global inequality.

4. Challenges of implementation: While cosmopolitanism provides

a moral framework addressing global inequality, translating those

ideal into concrete political action can be difficult due to complex

power dynamics between nations and the challenges international

consensus on issues like resource distribution.
