Educational Inequality
摘要
In recent years, educational levels have risen globally, yet significant inequalities persist. While many European countries have seen improvements, a sizable fraction of the population still fails to complete upper secondary education. Although Europe has moderate income and wealth inequality, dropout rates are strongly influenced by family background. This chapter explores educational inequities in Europe, focusing on dropout rates, university education, and performance on international standardized tests. Despite stable income and wealth inequality, educational disparities continue, prompting discussions on equity and potential solutions.
