Автор: Hoeller Peter, Joumard Isabelle & Koske Isabelle Название: Income Inequality In Oecd Countries: What Are The Drivers And Policy Options? ISBN: 9814518514 ISBN-13(EAN): 9789814518512 Издательство: World Scientific Publishing Цена: 85530.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: This book provides a comprehensive review of income inequality issues in the OECD in a cross-country setting. It presents a wealth of data and analysis on the formation of inequality and identifies groups of countries that share similar inequality patterns. It also reviews developments at the extremes of the income distribution, namely poverty, top incomes as well as the distribution of wealth. An important contribution of the book is the careful examination of the determinants of the income distribution, such as globalisation and technical progress as well as the effect of a wide range of economic policies that shape the distribution of income. These include in particular labour market regulations, household taxes and transfers as well as in-kind public services. It also sheds light on an under-researched issue: do policies aimed at boosting economic growth raise or reduce income inequality?

This state-of-the-art volume presents comparative, empirical research on a topic that has long preoccupied scholars, politicians, and everyday citizens: economic inequality. While income and wealth inequality across all populations is the primary focus, the contributions to this book pay special attention to the middle class, a segment often not addressed in inequality literature.
Written by leading scholars in the field of economic inequality, all 17 chapters draw on microdata from the databases of LIS, an esteemed cross-national data center based in Luxembourg. Using LIS data to structure a comparative approach, the contributors paint a complex portrait of inequality across affluent countries at the beginning of the 21st century. The volume also trail-blazes new research into inequality in countries newly entering the LIS databases, including Japan, Iceland, India, and South Africa.

Автор: Elmira Bloom Название: National Strategy for Achieving Health Equity & a Plan to Reduce Racial & Ethnic Health Disparities ISBN: 1631170430 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781631170430 Издательство: Nova Science Рейтинг: Цена: 267160.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: In 1985, the United States Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) released a landmark report documenting the existence of health disparities for minorities in the United States. It called such disparities, "an affront both to our ideals and to the ongoing genius of American medicine". In the decades since the release of that report much has changed in our society -- including significant improvements in health and health services throughout the nation. This book focuses on a national stakeholder strategy for achieving health equity, and a health and human services action plan to reduce racial and ethnic disparities in health and health care.
