Abstract:
Sport, Social Division and Social InequalityThis article examines different forms of social division and social inequality which impact upon contemporary sport. The research draws upon and contributes to contemporary sports participation data in one country. It also draws upon some examples of research from countries other than UK in order to provide a broader international perspective. It examines new forms of inequality and some of the ways in which sport has helped to support social change. It suggests that future researcher examining the relationship between sport and social inequality might think of this in at least three ways (i) inequality of condition; (ii) inequality of opportunity and (iii) inequality of capability. The research supports the argument that sport has a part to play in improving the life chances. The research provides a valuable comparative example from which to develop further comparative research in this area.

Abstract:
Social media content shared today in cities, such as Instagram images, their tags and descriptions, is the key form of contemporary city life. It tells people where activities and locations that interest them are and it allows them to share their urban experiences and self-representations. Therefore, any analysis of urban structures and cultures needs to consider social media activity. In our paper, we introduce the novel concept of social media inequality. This concept allows us to quantitatively compare pattern in social media activities between parts of a city, a number of cities, or any other spatial areas. We define this concept using an analogy with the concept of economic inequality. Economic inequality indicates how some economic characteristics or material resources, such as income, wealth or consumption are distributed in a city, country or between countries. Accordingly, we can define social media inequality as the measures of distribution of characteristics of social media content shared in a particular geographic area or between areas. An example of such characteristics is the number of photos shared by all users of a social network such as Instagram in a given city or city area, or the content of these photos. We propose that the standard inequality measures used in other disciplines, such as the Gini coefficient, can also be used to characterize social media inequality. To test our ideas, we use a dataset of 7,442,454 public geo-coded Instagram images shared in Manhattan during five months (March — July) in 2014, and also selected data for 287 Census tracts in Manhattan. We compare patterns in Instagram sharing for locals and for visitors for all tracts, and also for hours in a 24 hour cycle. We also look at relations between social media inequality and socio-economic inequality using selected indicators for Census tracts. The inequality of Instagram images shared in Manhattan turns out to be bigger than inequalities in levels of income, rent, and unemployment.

Abstract:
Inequality is usually studied with a focus on economic factors, such as income and wealth, and with reference to a brief period of time, basically the period of data collection. This article argues that this approach is misleading and does not allow us to understand inequality, let alone society at large. Inequalities and social hierarchies comprise more than economic factors but also cultural factors, as Pierre Bourdieu has shown. Bourdieu, however, neglected the historical dimension. Classes and habitus types are rooted in long traditions, which have to be studied over centuries, not months or years. Capitalist societies develop hierarchies of social classes, which are shaped by pre-capitalist hierarchies. These earlier hierarchies tend to persist for decades or even centuries after the capitalist transformation. I refer to these earlier hierarchies as sociocultures, since they form not only hierarchies but also cultures, which reproduce from one generation to the next. Edward P. Thompson has demonstrated this with regard to the English working class. In the article, I will introduce the concept of socioculture as it is used in studies of social inequality.

Abstract:
This paper examines the moral import of a distinction between natural and social inequalities. Following Thomas Nagel, it argues for a “denatured” distinction that relies less on the biological vs. social causation of inequalities than on the idea that society is morally responsible for some inequalities but not others. It maintains that securing fair equality of opportunity by eliminating such social inequalities has particularly high priority in distributive justice. Departing from Nagel, it argues that society can be responsible for inequalities not only when they are the unintended result of justifiable projects, but even when their alleviation would be very costly. Sharing Nagel’s general concept of ‘social inequality’, then, this paper proposes a far more expansive conception. We argue that many disadvantages due to disability fall under this conception. Eliminating or alleviating those disadvantages should be regarded as securing fair equality of opportunity, not improving the condition of the worst-off.

Abstract:
This quantitative study examines the complex relationship between economic inequality and social inequities, focusing on educational attainment. The study examines how Gini coefficient-measured economic disparity affects educational attainment in hypothetical countries. This study uses a linear regression model to examine how economic inequality affects social outcomes. A statistically substantial positive correlation exists between the Gini coefficient and educational attainment discrepancy. Educational attainment disparity increases by 2.5 years per unit rise in the Gini coefficient, according to the calculated coefficient. This supports the idea that economic inequality increases education gaps, prolonging cycles of disadvantage for vulnerable populations. The study underlines the intricacy of these processes by conceding that regression analysis cannot prove causation. Economic inequality affects educational attainment disparity through policy frameworks, institutional structures, and cultural norms. This highlights the necessity for extensive policy responses to address these issues. The policy ramifications of this study are significant. The findings emphasize the need for fair access to quality education, especially for disadvantaged communities. Targeted actions are needed to reduce economic inequality's impact on education and promote inclusivity. This study examined educational attainment, but its approach and findings are important. The association between economic inequality and social differences is multifaceted, begging for further study. This study adds to the debate between economic inequality and social inequality. This study emphasizes the need for educated and context-sensitive strategies to reduce gaps, enhance social mobility, and create more equitable society as societies face inequality.

Abstract:
First published in 1897 in the avant-garde journal Jugend, Simmel’s fairy tale tells the story of the emergence of a sense of grievance about differences in the ability to grow roses which became constructed as a ‘terrible inequality’. Although moves were made to address this inequality so that everyone became able to grow roses, differences remained in how well different rose gardens grew, which in turn came to be perceived as an equally oppressive form of inequality. A translator’s note outlines the significance of the text for the sociological analysis of inequality and the pursuit of equality, placing it in the context of related theories of inequality, recognition, distinction, the narcissism of minor differences, and ressentiment.

Abstract:
The article describes the formation of digital economy from the point of view of emergence of socio-political risks, in particular the risk of social inequality as a result of growth of digital inequality. The study was conducted as a part of political science analysis. The aim of the work is to identify factors affecting social inequality, develop the steps to prevent its further spread. To achieve this goal, the following tasks are set: to consider the essence of inequality and approaches which determine its causes; to explore a new type of inequality - digital; identify socio-political risks of digitalization which affect inequality; suggest ways to manage these risks. The article presents the evolution of ideas about inequality from the XVIII century to the present day, from Rousseau's "natural inequality" to the modern "digital inequality". The reasons and consequences of the social inequality spread in the digital age are considered in detail. With the advent of the digital age, social strata did not disappear from the realities of our world, but on the contrary were transferred to the virtual world. The emergence of digital inequality has actualized the risk of social inequality spread, the consequences of which are changes in the structure of society and employment; uneven economic development; income distribution imbalances, uneven access to social benefits and rights. The steps aimed at changing the mentality of citizens and social institutions are proposed to manage the risk of social inequality in modern conditions. Economic and political backwardness, social inequality can be overcome by the effect of the same breakthrough digital technologies, which are no longer passive agents of public relations, but determine the development of the economy, politics, and society generally.

Abstract:
This article presents the results of a study of new forms of social inequality, as well as the features of their manifestation in modern Russia, carried out by employees of the Department of Modern Sociology of the Sociology Faculty of Moscow State University named after M.V. Lomonosov. Social inequality as a whole is defined as a specific form of social stratification in which individual individuals, social groups, layers or classes are at different levels of the vertical social hierarchy and have unequal opportunities to satisfy their material, social or spiritual needs. Much attention is paid to the analysis of the ideological foundations of global social inequality, which also includes national states in the vertical hierarchy of individuals, social groups, classes, and layers, which are accordingly ranked within the framework of the world community. It is proved that global social inequality is based on “market fundamentalism” — a special type of political thinking that elevates the principles of the “invisible hand of the market” and “non-interference of the state in the economic activities of economic entities” to the level of a totalitarian type of dogma. The practical embodiment of this dogma entails the reproduction of social inequality and extremely unfair social relations on a global scale.Among the forms of global social inequality, the leading role is played by resource inequality, however, along with the resource inequality, relatively new forms of social inequality are quite clearly manifested, which the Swedish sociologist G. Terborn singled out — vital inequality and existential inequality.Vital or biological inequality captures the basic characteristic of human existence, since it refers to categories such as, for example, environment and health. Existential inequality outlines a system of hierarchies based on inclusion / exclusion categories (social inclusion / exclusion). The article discusses in detail the features of the manifestation of all these forms of social inequality both within the world community and in Russia. In addition, a new methodological approach to the analysis of inequality from the standpoint of social constructivism was substantiated, when the question of what constitutes the basis of social inequality was supplemented by the question of how people themselves produce and reproduce social inequality in the usual practices of everyday social life.

Abstract:
It is theorized that income inequality is an indicator of status inequality and should therefore be associated with adverse health outcomes. In this article, we propose a novel way to capture status inequality more directly by measuring the distribution of self-perceived status in a society. We investigate whether status inequality in a society is associated with depression in the population. We show, first, that there is only a moderate association between subjective social status inequality and income inequality. Second, we provide evidence that depression is higher in countries with higher status inequality and that our novel measure of status inequality is more strongly associated with depression than the conventionally used income inequality measure. However, results are susceptible to influential country cases.

In this article we look at some of the most influential theories of class, which try to explain class inequality in west and east European societies. Social stratification is considered as a system of social inequality, social differentiation, based on differences in the occupied position and functions performed. Social inequality is the basis of stratification of society and is perceived as its main feature. The theory of social stratification reveals the essence of social inequality in such factors as social status, social role and prestige of functionally describing the social structure.

This paper aims to discuss the topic of income inequality theoretically. Income inequality, a persistent and multidimensional challenge, has deep-seated causes and wide-ranging damages. This paper states several potential causes of the income inequality and gives reasons that why these are the triggers or the catalysts of income inequality. Also, potential damages can be comprehensively indicated in people’s daily life. Income inequality can even influence other social wellbeing that affect the living standard for people. As a global dilemma requiring remedy, comprehensive policy approaches, addressing education, taxation, social safety nets, and more, are necessary to resolve this problem, which are discussed in this paper. Demonstrations about the effect of these policies are made as well. Yet, feasibility varies widely, influenced by political, economic, and social factors. To evaluate these policies, the limitations and drawbacks are vital elements. This paper also includes these evaluations. Crafting an equitable future requires collective effort, drawing on successful policy solutions and acknowledging the complexities of income inequality. While policy implementation may be challenging, the pursuit of a fairer and more just society remains crucial.

Abstract:
This article explores the extent to which income inequality and income mobility—both considered indicators of economic inequality and conditions of formal regulatory institutions (government activism)—facilitate or constrain the emergence of social entrepreneurship. Using 77,983 individual-level responses obtained from the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM) survey of 26 countries, and supplementing with country-level data obtained from the Global Competitiveness Report of the World Economic Forum, our results from multilevel analyses demonstrate that country-level income inequality increases the likelihood of individual-level engagement in social entrepreneurship, while income mobility decreases this likelihood. Further, income mobility negatively moderates the influence of income inequality on social entrepreneurship, such that the condition of low income mobility and high income inequality is a stronger predictor of social entrepreneurship. We discuss implications and limitations of our study, and we suggest avenues for future research.
