The Spheres of Inequality in a Centrally Planned Economy: The Case of Poland
Abstract
Analysis of selected segments of the Polish economy reveals several spheres of inequality. Some of them, such as inequalities in wages or household assets, are found in every type of economy. However, some inequalities are specific to a centrally planned economy, for example, those in the sphere of decision making and those resulting from a twofold attitude towards various forms of ownership.
