Resumo(s)
The aim of this article is to present some contributions to the understanding of social inequality in
Europe today. We analyse the distributional inequalities of economic and educational resources as well as the
categorical inequalities between nation states and between social classes. The source of the empirical data was
the European Social Survey 2012. We were able to calculate European income deciles, build a matrix of
class-country segments, and analyse the intersections of this structural matrix with the distributions of income
and schooling. The results reveal high degrees of distributional inequality in Europe. They also show the
structural configurations assumed in Europe by the intersection of distributive and categorical inequalities.
