Abstract: The aim of article is to present the contemporary development of society and related economic inequality. Emphasis is place on age inequality due to its economic aspects and characteristics. The direction of article is to the new reality, in which the economic indicators decrease and have a negative impact on another contemporary trend - increasing the number of retired persons. The results of article outline a trend similar to most EU countries - population aging and inequality for retired people. Unlike other countries, there are additional factors in Bulgaria that affect the inequality studied - the transitional nature of economy and a series of social reforms, incl. the EU integration processes.
