In the three decades to the recent economic downturn, wage gaps widened and
household income inequality increased in a large majority of OECD countries.
This occurred even when countries were going through a period of sustained
economic and employment growth. This report analyses the major underlying
forces behind these developments. It examines to which extent economic
globalisation, skill-biased technological progress and institutional and
regulatory reforms have had an impact on the distribution of earnings. The
report further provides evidence of how changes in family formation and
household structures have altered household earnings and income inequality.
And it documents how tax and benefit systems have changed in the ways they
redistribute household incomes. The report discusses which policies are most
promising to counter increases in inequalities and how the policy mix can be
adjusted when public budgets are under strain.
