Comments

There has been a striking rise in wage and income inequality over the last decades. In this seminar, we will study the extent of economic inequality, its sources, consequences and possible remedies. Having achieved a basic understandig of concepts, theories and empirical evidence, we will discuss the current situation with both academics and practitioners. Exam: The exams for this module are regular attendance at meetings, active and well prepared design of discussions and four short essays. close
