In order to conduct the research, a research problem was formulated: How important is the area of issues related to victimization conditioned by socio-economic factors, concerns the issue of social exclusion on the basis of poverty. In accordance with the research problem, a research hypothesis has been formulated, which assumes that poverty is one of the most significant components conditioning the pathology of social life in the existential, institutional and political sense. Negative factors very often occur together (e.g. alcoholism and disability, low salary and illness, large number of children and unemployment), they are reinforced by mechanisms generating poverty in the macro social structure, which in its entirety creates the risk of falling into the so-called long-term poverty, in which the basic life orientation is the category of survival. Verification of the above hypothesis and obtaining answers to the above questions required the use of research methods, including a critical analysis of legal acts, documents and selected items of literature on the subject. The author points out that research in developing countries should contribute to improving the situation of people living there, i.e. serve to solve specific problems. It is pointed out that there are no specific, geographical problems of development. It is people, social groups that inhabit it and develop a specific natural environment, interacting with it in various ways, constantly encountering various problems related to its use and adaptation to the prevailing conditions. To sum up, the author states that an important area of issues related to victimization conditioned by socio-economic factors concerns the issue of social exclusion on the basis of poverty.}, doi = {10.4467/29567610PIB.24.025.20788}, url = {https://ejournals.eu/en/journal/pb-ls/article/oddzialywania-antywiktymizacyjne-w-sferze-ekonomii-spolecznej} }
