Research in Labor Economics 44 takes another in-depth and focussed
look at Inequality. This time however it is tied in with well-being
of the workforce. Research in Labor Economics volume 44 contains
new and innovative research on the causes and consequences of
inequality and well-being of the work force.
Inequality has been rising in many countries over the last decades
and the process seems to have accelerated with the Great Recession.
Not only is income distribution more unequal today than 40 years
ago, but also its transmission through generations has increased.
In other words, many countries no longer experience upward economic
mobility as was prevalent in the past. Research in Labor Economics
volume 43 contains new and innovative research on the causes and
consequences of inequality. Topics include the way inequality is
measured, the level of equal opportunities across countries, the
impact of education, the effect of changing occupational structure,
the consequences of changing productivity within the firm, the
roles of stagnating average real wages, the decline of union
membership, the effect of maternal labor supply on labor market
outcomes of their children, and the link between income inequality
and health.
