The book examines the development and the dynamics of the personal
distribution of income in Germany, Great Britain, Sweden and the
United States and some other OECD countries. Starting with the
distribution of labour income, the issue is then expanded to
include all monetary incomes of private households and to adjust
for household size by an equivalence scale. Some authors analyse
one country in detail by decomposing aggregate inequality measures,
other authors focus on direct comparisons of some features of the
income distribution in Germany with those in Great Britain or in
the United States. The results suggest dominant influences of
unemployment as well as of tax and transfer policies and different
welfare regimes, respectively, but also show that our knowledge
about distributional processes is still limited.
