What inequality are we talking about?

Claudio Salvadori Dedecca ()

Brazilian Journal of Political Economy, 2012, vol. 32, issue 1, 55-71

Abstract: The essay was motivated by the recent disclosure of documents by multilateral development institutions demonstrating that the last phase of economic growth has tended to aggravate socioeconomic inequality. The purpose of the current analyze is to debate the advances that have been made and the persisting methodological and analytical difficulties in the debate on inequality as well as to contribute with a few insights towards the construction of a multidimensional view of a recurring and inherent aspect of capitalist development. JEL Classification: I30; O15.
