Why do incomes diverge in modern economies, and what can guide fair policy? This book analyzes the rise of income inequality after the war and asks how ethical principles relate to real economic outcomes. It combines historical development, theoretical discussion, and practical reform ideas.
< p>Part I surveys ethical questions and how people think about wealth gaps. Part II traces how the theory of distribution evolved over time. Part III examines how income divides between different factors of production and how that affects workers and owners. Part IV turns to income divisions among individuals, with a focus on inherited wealth and its influence on inequality. The author also discusses proposed reforms to inheritance law and the limits of reform in changing productive power.
Ideal for readers of economics, public policy, and social ethics seeking a careful, historically grounded view of income inequality.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book provides a comprehensive historical analysis of the economic theory of distribution of income in modern society. The author examines the views of economists from the 18th century to the present day, focusing on the evolution of theories on the division of income between different groups and individuals. The author argues that the views on distribution of income have been shaped by the prevailing economic and social conditions of different periods, and that these theories have in turn influenced policy debates on issues such as poverty, inequality, and the role of government in the economy. The author provides a critical assessment of these theories, highlighting their strengths and weaknesses, and offers insights into the future of economic thought on distribution of income. The book is a valuable resource for economists, policymakers, and anyone interested in the history of economic thought and its implications for contemporary economic issues.
