Schooling and Income Distribution

The Review of Economics and Statistics, 1976
ONE question that arises following recent I attempts to introduce economic theory in explaining income distribution is to what extent schooling can be used as a policy instrument to promote equality in our society.

Journal of Urban Economics, 2004
This paper studies the distribution of income within neighborhoods and contrasts it with the national income distribution. It relies on a unique feature of the American Housing Survey, whose 1985, 1989 and 1993 waves of interviews provide data for small residential neighborhoods.

POLARIZATION ORDERINGS OF INCOME DISTRIBUTIONS

Review of Income and Wealth, 2010

VERTICAL DIFFERENTIATION AND THE DISTRIBUTION OF INCOME

Bulletin of Economic Research, 2006
The paper analyses the effects of income concentration on the behaviour of a duopoly with vertical product differentiation and uncovered market. By using a trapezoid distribution, we solve explicitly for market equilibrium as a function of a mean preserving spread of the income distribution. We show that overall more concentrated incomes imply stronger
