Aunque las desigualdades entre países se suavizan, están en aumento dentro de los países y se hacen más profundas, alcanzando dimensiones intolerables en casi todas las sociedades.

En la actualidad existe un acuerdo generalizado acerca de muchos aspectos de la desigualdad: sobre su magnitud, multidimensionalidad, implicaciones y, en menor grado, sobre la necesidad de combatirla. Sus perniciosos efectos se ramifican en nuevas manifestaciones.

Más allá de las clásicas desigualdades de ingreso y riqueza, se perfilan nuevas brechas que se entrelazan y se refuerzan mutuamente: las desigualdades empeoran la salud de las personas, erosionan la cohesión social y alteran la capacidad de influencia política, fomentando la polarización, o se plasman en afectaciones y responsabilidades por el cambio climático –o la contaminación del aire– dispares, mientras que las clases acomodadas del Norte y el Sur global continúan ensanchando esa distancia con un modo de vida despilfarrador de energía y bienes naturales.

El número 159 de la revista Papeles de Relaciones Ecosociales y Cambio Global explora diferentes facetas de la desigualdad y cómo afecta a nuestras sociedades.

Together with the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement and specialised United Nations (UN) entities, non-governmental organisations (NGOs) from international civil society are the third-largest family of international actors. Still overwhelmingly Western, they bring together and organise citizens who share an ambition to change public policies in their countries of origin. But they also operate at a distance from these countries to carry out solidarity actions. They assert too that they intervene in the name of a common humanity alongside populations affected by political or environmental crises. Violence, communicable diseases and shortfalls in basic needs are often the common denominator.

A dos siglos de su independencia, América Central transita una combinación de crisis: éxodo, aumento de la violencia y retrocesos democráticos. Si los Acuerdos de Esquipulas en los años 80 activaron el optimismo sobre un devenir de paz en la región, hoy muchos de sus habitantes votan con los pies y buscan probar suerte en el Norte. No obstante, la sociedad civil no se resigna a este destino y las luchas sociales mantienen vivas las esperanzas de cambio.
