The concentration of income and wealth at the top of society is now seen as a threat to economic, social and political stability. « Inequality and Inclusive Growth in Rich Countries » aims to identify what structures and policies are associated with success or failure in limiting the rise in inequality and promoting income growth for those in the middle and lower reaches of the income distribution. It analyses the varying experiences of ten rich countries over recent decades in depth, revealing that there are indeed responses that governments and societies can adopt, and that stagnation and rising inequality do not have to be accepted, but can be combatted given the political will and capacity.".Bibliography: Bibliogr. en fin de contributions.
