Sommario/riassunto |
|
This book examines the causes and consequences associated with the falling wage share and rising inequality in income distribution, relating to both aggregate demand and labour productivity. It presents new empirical and econometric evidence regarding the economic causes and potential impact of changing income distribution. The volume argues that distributional shifts in favour of capital and the rise in income inequality have reduced economic growth and increased economic instability. |
