It is also believed that also the way of carrying out analysis of income inequalities changes - it is more often treated as the main problem of research. The aim of the article is to indicate circumstances of the way of analysis of income inequalities in economics and change of the level of interest of this phenomenon. The author of the paper takes epistemic perspective of socio-regulative concept of culture. A particular aim is to indicate the most important theories of economics that address the problem of income inequalities.
