Research on Economic Inequality is a well-established publication
of quality research. This 28th volume features insightful and
original papers from the 8th Society for the Study of Economic
Inequality (ECINEQ) meeting. The first paper of this volume
illustrates the trajectory of income inequality in wealthy
countries over the course of recent decades, while the second
carries out a comprehensive assessment of income redistribution
through taxes and transfers across OECD countries over the last two
decades. The next two papers cover the topic of income mobility,
one interpreting the Bartholomew index of mobility in terms of a
directional mobility index, and the second providing a framework
for the measurement of income mobility over a range of time
periods. A fifth paper studies the potential equalization of rising
educational attainment. The next paper investigates the effect the
number of children within different age groups has on poverty. In
the seventh, it is shown that a social planner who seeks to
efficiently reduce the aggregate relative deprivation of the
population, coincides with the Rawlsian social planner. Finally,
the last paper generalizes the Oaxaca-Blinder approach to measure
wage discrimination under imperfect information.
