This research explores the evolution of several socioeconomic indicators belonging to the aggregate dimension of inequality (income, health, life expectancy, education, and sustainable development) in 5 CEE countries spanning 2010-2019. A special focus is dedicated to Romania’s national and regional framework due to mixed evidence concerning inequality’s impact on economic growth, poverty and human development. Our main results show a high value of this group’s recorded human development index (HDI), indicating an elevated level of the population’s well-being. Nevertheless, further analyses reflect severe disparities among countries and regions in terms of productivity, earnings, and social inclusion, corroborated by losses in education and welfare due to increased inequality. |
