A Threat to Economic and Social Stability? An Analytical Review

Abstract

Economic and social stability are cornerstones of sustainable development, peace, and prosperity. However, in recent decades, multiple interconnected threats have emerged that challenge the resilience of nations and societies. Globalization, technological disruptions, climate change, pandemics, rising inequality, and geopolitical conflicts have all contributed to fragile systems that threaten both economies and social cohesion. This research article provides a comprehensive analysis of the key threats to economic and social stability, exploring their causes, implications, and possible solutions. Drawing upon economic theory, political sociology, and contemporary case studies, the study emphasizes the interdependence of economic health and social well-being. The article concludes that addressing these threats requires coordinated policy interventions, inclusive economic strategies, and a renewed commitment to global cooperation.
