| description | The subject of inequality represents a present phenomenon in the contemporary society, even though the issue
was analyzed by various authors, since the beginning of the Industrial Age. Ideologues, philosophers, economists or
social scientists devoted researches on the subject of inequality, offering various interpretations or solutions, more or
less viable, about this issue. The present paper will try to argue, from the viewpoint of International Relations Theory,
that social inequality represents the expression of a liberal hegemonic model, still influent at the international system.
This hegemonic model is based on the liberal ideology, thus assuming the phenomenon and outcome of inequality as
natural. From a theoretical point of view, this paper is based on the hegemonic stability theory, an approach from the
International Relations Theory. The main actor which sustains this hegemonic model is represented by the United
States, as the hegemonic power in the international system, the world leader that sustains the liberal political and
economic institutions at the systemic level. From a methodological point of view, the research adopted a qualitative
perspective, with the case study on the influence of the liberal hegemonic model on the subject of inequality.
