| Zusammenfassung: | It is recognised that the gap between rich and poor in Britain is widening faster than in any comparable country. This important issue is attracting increasing attention after long neglect. Economists and others concerned with problems linked with inequality are investigating factors contributing to the situation. Based on results of the first recent major research programme in this area, this book, first published in 1996, examines wealth distribution in the United Kingdom over the last two decades. Leading specialists in the area tackle the problem from a wide variety of perspectives. Contributions include: the analysis of income distribution; the effects of greater female participation in the labour force; social security reform; and geographical variation at the national and local scale. Understanding the complexity of these factors is crucial to designing policies which can begin to cope with income inequalities |

This important issue is attracting increasing attention after long neglect. Economists and others concerned with problems linked with inequality are investigating factors contributing to the situation. Based on results of the first recent major research programme in this area, this book, first published in 1996, examines wealth distribution in the United Kingdom over the last two decades. Leading specialists in the area tackle the problem from a wide variety of perspectives. Contributions include: the analysis of income distribution; the effects of greater female participation in the labour force; social security reform; and geographical variation at the national and local scale. Understanding the complexity of these factors is crucial to designing policies which can begin to cope with income inequalities Geschichte 1966-1996 gnd rswk-swf Income distribution / Great Britain Income / Great Britain Wealth / Great Britain Einkommensverteilung (DE-588)4013898-7 gnd rswk-swf Wohlstand (DE-588)4128492-6 gnd rswk-swf Lebenshaltungskosten (DE-588)4034866-0 gnd rswk-swf Regionale Disparität (DE-588)4293657-3 gnd rswk-swf Großbritannien Großbritannien (DE-588)4022153-2 gnd rswk-swf 1\p (DE-588)4143413-4 Aufsatzsammlung gnd-content Großbritannien (DE-588)4022153-2 g Wohlstand (DE-588)4128492-6 s Regionale Disparität (DE-588)4293657-3 s Geschichte 1966-1996 z 2\p DE-604 Einkommensverteilung (DE-588)4013898-7 s Lebenshaltungskosten (DE-588)4034866-0 s 3\p DE-604 Hills, John 1954- edt Erscheint auch als Druckausgabe 978-0-521-55326-1 Erscheint auch als Druckausgabe 978-0-521-55698-9 https://doi.org/10.1017/CBO9780511521935 Verlag URL des Erstveröffentlichers Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 2\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 3\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
