Developement of Poverty in the Czech Republic between 2008 and 2018

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Many economists consider poverty to be one of the most urgent problems of the future. There are opinions that modern capitalism has caused an increase in poverty and income inequalities. However, it seems to depend mainly on the angle of vision, whether the authors take a country or broader region approach. Under digital progress, new socio-economic tasks are emerging, and poverty might become even more prominent problem. There is no doubt that one of the crucial factors to reduce poverty is economic growth and how economic growth affects income distribution. This study focuses on the development of poverty and income distribution development in the Czech Republic between two recent economic peaks, specifically between 2008 and 2018. The contribution aims to find how poverty and related income distribution have changed over this period and make a comparison among selected European countries. Results suggest that in the case of Czech poverty it is the lowest among followed countries. However, good performance in terms of overall data is not as satisfying in a more detailed view. Even though female poverty rate in the Czech Republic is the second-lowest, the ratio between female and male in poverty is the highest.
