Earnings Inequality:: The Influence of Changing Opportunities & Choices

By Robert H. Haveman and Robert H. Haverman

This is a timely and data-driven examination of income inequality, wealth distribution, and economic mobility, where Robert Haveman digs into male earnings since the mid-1970s to untangle how much of the widening gap stems from shifting labor market opportunities versus individual work choices, offering essential insight for anyone weighing economic policy, wealth inequality, and the future of American earnings.

The author analyzes the change in male earnings inequality since the mid-1970s to see how much is attributable to changes in labor market opportunities and how much to changes in work choices.
