This book presents a unified approach to the problem of inequality,
combining results from a variety of research fields - the human
life cycle, group dynamics, networks, markets, and economic
geography. Its main message is that inequality emerges as the
natural result of mechanisms operating both in individual human
development and in social interaction. It posits that inequality is
not an anomalous deviation from a naturally egalitarian social
structure; quite to the contrary, inequality is to be expected as
part of the human condition. The author states that the growth of
inequality, on the other hand, is not a natural law - the level and
character of inequality can be affected by collective decisions.
This perspective on human inequality has potentially far-reaching
consequences both for the political philosophy of inequality and
for public policy-making. This book is of interest to a wide
interdisciplinary social science readership, including public
policy, decision sciences, economic geography, and life course
studies.
