About this lecture

Research on wealth inequality has come to the fore and is now attracting a great deal of attention. Both the theoretical and empirical literature on wealth inequality have been expanding over time and this is a very active research ground, but many challenges lie ahead. What do we mean by wealth and how do we measure wealth distribution? What are the main drivers of wealth concentration and what is the relative contribution of inheritance to wealth accumulation?
