Q. First of all, what is international disparity?



A. International disparity is simply "the disparity that is occurring around the world.

However, this is just a disjointed word and not very clear.


First of all, let me explain about "disparity".

Disparity is a difference between like things, that is, a difference between people.

For example, there are poor families and rich families, or men are better than women (or vice versa).

(or vice versa) is called disparity.

We often hear the word "disparity society.


So what changes when "international" is added?

Actually, the term "international disparity" is vague, and there are different interpretations of its meaning.

The first is "the disparities that occur around the world," as I mentioned earlier.

The second is "comparing differences in income and other factors between countries".

The third is "comparing the magnitude of disparity within a country with that of other countries.

Let's start with the first meaning of the term "international inequality" and take a look at the current status of inequality in the world.
