Inequality in the UK

de Alissa Goodman, Paul Johnson, Steven Webb · Publicada por primera vez en 1997

Inequality in the UK describes the current distribution of income in the United Kingdom and analyses trends since the start of the 1960s. Drawing on detailed information on the incomes and socio-economic characteristics of more than 250,000 families surveyed over the last three decades, it provides the first comprehensive description of major changes in the UK income distribution over the period. This book also examines the prospects for the income distribution in the future and the effectiveness of alternative policy measures which could stem the growth in inequality.
