| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
As a result of the global financial crisis, the EU and its Member States have been forced to consider the long-term sustainability of their social security systems as well as Japan. Even when economies grow, the trickle-down effect postulated by neoliberals is somewhat minimal and the benefits of growth do not necessarily reach all parts of society. Rather, it has been recognized that economic growth can increase the gap between the rich and the poor and even raise poverty levels in a country. Inequality in the distribution of wealth and income has worsened in conjunction with neoliberal globalization not only in Japan but also worldwide. Employment insecurity has grown and social stability is vanishing.
