Анотація

The aim of the article is to identify and formalize causes and criteria of socio-economic inequality, develop an integral indicator of inequality under current conditions of global development using the criteria-based approach. There applied the following methods: the generalization and formalization methods – in studying causes of inequality, the methods of abstraction and mathematical analysis – in constructing the covariance matrix of inequality criteria. Based on the analysis, it is established that inequality results from specific economic and social conditions, has a multilevel structure and is a multidimensional category by origin. The causes of inequality are argued, including prestige of the profession, property status, wages, income, wealth, education, etc. Inequality is a relative assessment of development that is considered in the context of social and economic dimensions of development, which is associated with the distribution of wealth, property, capital, income, economic power, social services. It is established that the transformations taking place in the modern global world play an important role in changing the ideology of inequality. To calculate the integral index of socio-economic inequality, there proposed a criteria-based scientific methodological approach, which is adapted to the current conditions of development, uses a set of analytical indicators (decile and quintile coefficients; Gini, Palma, Keitz indices; happiness index, human development index) and can be applied at any level.
