Recenzii
Furchgott-Roth has brought together contributions from experts across government and the private sector examining the measurement of income, what should be included in such measurement, and the effects of taxes and transfers on incentives and inequality. The contributions are readable, and the accompanying tables and graphs are relevant and easy to follow. Furchgott-Roth's introduction addresses the relevance of this topic in the context of the current pandemic.
Taken as a whole... [United States Income, Wealth, Consumption, and Inequality] sets the table for the money conversation we should be having.
This book is invaluable for anyone interested in the distribution of income and wealth. It clearly explains the analytic issues important to understanding this complex topic and will be extremely helpful both to those looking for a review of the current state of knowledge and those wanting a better understanding of unsettled issues.
This fascinating book of key facts and ideas on income inequality, beautifully explained by an impressive range of leading experts, is essential reading now more than ever. The pandemic has laid bare the intrinsic link between income inequality and unequal opportunities, especially in education. Necessary actions delve into the very foundation of economics.
Whatever your view on inequality, this indispensable volume will improve it. The volume combines carefully measured, diverse empirical studies from top scholars that integrate inequality considerations with related issues in trade, migration, labor participation, and public goods provision. Truly a must-read.
This book provides a remarkable collection of essays on inequality by leading scholars. If you are looking for a thoughtful introduction to all of the issues surrounding inequality in America, this book is a great place to start. The authors span the ideological spectrum, and so the book as a whole provides a far more complete view of inequality than most prior work. The book includes everything from serious discussions of measurement to detailed policy analysis of particular approaches to inequality. This collection combines academic insight with practical policy and will be a valuable resource for anyone who is interested in inequality today.
This book provides readers fodder for many engaging discussions on income inequality.
