description | : The article presents an analysis of the main political attitude to poverty
and social inequality which has an influence on the creation of social policy, and
specifically focuses on the policies of economisation, minimisation and stigmatisation
aimed at the increased acceptability of social inequalities and reduced significance
of poverty; this in turn helps the state neglect the investment of adequate resources to
do away with poverty. This state of affairs is illustrated by statistical data on poverty
that offer enough information to conclude that poverty needs to be faced immediately
while its abolition is still possible instead of letting the poverty level increase and the
fight against it become ever harder. |
