And why does inequality matter anyway?In Battlers and Billionaires, Andrew Leigh weaves together vivid anecdotes, interesting history and powerful statistics to tell the story of inequality in this country. This is economics writing at its best. From egalitarian beginnings, Australian inequality rose through the nineteenth century. Then we became more equal again, with inequality falling markedly from the 1920's to the 1970's. Now, inequality is returning to the heights of the 1920's. Leigh shows that while inequality can fuel growth, it also poses dangers to society.RedbackEqualityAustraliaSocial classesAustraliaIncome distributionAustraliaAustraliaSocial conditionsEqualitySocial classesIncome distribution309.194Leigh Andrew252389MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910786429503321Battlers & billionaires3852440UNINA
