© 2021 The Authors.The present article aims to analyze the rise of poverty and social inequality in the world caused by the COVID-19 crisis, in addition to considering how to address the issue in the context of new perspectives on the social welfare state. In order to contain the spread of the pandemic, governments have adopted policies of social isolation. These measures have weakened the global supply chains, creating impacts between supply and demand, which in turn have generated uncertainties about income and employment. As a result, world economies are vulnerable to the increment of poverty and differences between social classes.
