Summary/Abstract: The paper presents the process of changes in income inequality in Poland in 1990–2014. The author believes that counteracting increasing inequality should be based on social policies focused on those forms of inequality that lead to adoption of passive measures. The paper also identifies instruments which are effective in reducing social inequality as well as improving life quality in all spheres of human existence.
