Income distribution is one of the most important issues related to social change and is a central question in public policy. Despite this, income distribution is often neglected by mainstream economics. This important book seeks to rectify this by presenting a number of heterodox approaches to income distribution.The book approaches the subject from a variety of different schools of thought and focuses on some of the broader topics within income distribution as well as its significance for national policy. It addresses the social order of society as dictated by income, as well as institutional arrangements and their impact on income distribution theory and policy. The authors discuss current thinking as well as considering empirical findings on income distribution and how these are affected by different stages of economic development. The Economics of Income Distribution will be welcomed by economists, sociologists and political scientists interested in public policy issues relating to income distribution.

How can economic policies be designed - and redesigned - to increase growth and reduce unemployment in developing, developed and transitional economies? In The State and the Economic Process, a distinguished group of economists provides - through a comparison of postwar economic performance and policies - sound analytical support and historical evidence in favour of vigorous market guiding policies. These include targeting strategic industries, carefully managing both market collusion and competition, promoting environmentally sound technical change, and managing foreign trade and investment. The papers featured in this volume address such issues as widespread unemployment in the OECD, the deep and protracted contraction in the transitional economies, and the large variety in growth performance in developing countries. The authors go beyond the usual advocacy of the market as the solution to most economic problems, while avoiding the stale controversy over 'market failure' versus 'government failure'.
