In order to contribute to the understanding of such developments, this volume addresses the problem of economic inequality in Paraguay, Honduras and Chile. The studies show from different angles how an adverse family background has permanent negative effects on employment, wages and labour mobility, particularly in the presence of structural economic changes. In general, this book is a contribution to understand why inequality is highly persistent in Latin America 410 0$aGo?ttinger Studien zur Entwicklungso?konomik ;$vBd./v. 27. 606 $aEquality$zLatin America 607 $aLatin America$xEconomic conditions 607 $aLatin America$xSocial conditions 615 0$aEquality 676 $a305.5098 700 $aVillalobos Barri?a$b Carlos$f1980-$0916553 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910297052903321 996 $aEconomic inequality in Latin America$92054600 997 $aUNINA
