Early evidence seemed to suggest that this pattern would be borne out. But, as time passed and growth persisted, inequality continued to grow, casting doubt on the received wisdom. The aim of this two-volume book is to analyze the current state of global and regional inequality, dissect the phenomenal increase in inequality that we have seen occur in recent times, and better understand the complex relationship between inequality and development. The political instability and conflict that we see around the world, arguably, has connection to economic deprivation of large segments of society and the perception of marginalization. This two-volume work acquires a special significance in the light of these developments. 410 0$aInternational Economic Association Series,$x2662-6330 606 $aMacroeconomics 606 $aRegional economics 606 $aSpace in economics 606 $aDevelopment economics 606 $aWelfare economics 606 $aEconomics 606 $aMacroeconomics/Monetary Economics//Financial Economics$3http://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/W32000 606 $aRegional/Spatial Science$3http://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/W49000 606 $aDevelopment Economics$3http://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/W42000 606 $aSocial Choice/Welfare Economics/Public Choice/Political Economy$3http://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/W31020 606 $aEconomic Theory/Quantitative Economics/Mathematical Methods$3http://scigraph.springernature.com/things/product-market-codes/W29000 615 0$aMacroeconomics. 615 0$aRegional economics. 615 0$aSpace in economics. 615 0$aDevelopment economics. 615 0$aWelfare economics. 615 0$aEconomics. 615 14$aMacroeconomics/Monetary Economics//Financial Economics. 615 24$aRegional/Spatial Science. 615 24$aDevelopment Economics. 615 24$aSocial Choice/Welfare Economics/Public Choice/Political Economy. 615 24$aEconomic Theory/Quantitative Economics/Mathematical Methods. 676 $a339 702 $aBasu$b Kaushik$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aStiglitz$b Joseph E$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254891203321 996 $aInequality and Growth: Patterns and Policy$92005854 997 $aUNINA
