It is must reading for anyone interested in the future of humanity, including the sources of global political instability. With great precision, Roger Norton unveils in front of our eyes ten country studies that connect structural national features with inequality and destitution. The analysis is rigorous, and the narrative is compelling. A valuable contribution to a topic that should be in everyones minds. -- Sebastian Edwards, Henry Ford II Distinguished Professor of International Economics, UCLA, USA Inequality stirs passions across the globe today, figures prominently in political discourse, generates fervid debate and popular protest, and is the theme of widely read scholarly publications. This book contributes to the burgeoning global dialogues and literature on economic inequality in a new way, identifying and addressing what may be called bedrock types of inequality whose origins are rooted in the history and culture of each country. These kinds of inequality strongly influence income distributions by strata, can be resistant to change, and require solutions beyond fiscal tax and expenditure policies. And it places the findings firmly in the realm of the relevant studies on the topics covered. The countries analyzed include South Korea, Mexico, El Salvador, Honduras, Peru, Estonia, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nigeria, and Yemen. Roger D. Norton currently holds a joint appointment in Texas A&M Universitys (USA) Agricultural Economics Department as a Research Professor and the Universitys Borlaug Institute for International Agriculture and Development. At the Borlaug Institute he is Director for the Center for Coffee Research and Education and concurrently Director for Latin America and the Caribbean. As principal investigator in the Institute he has led three coffee development projects in Central America, including one that is current, and two projects for other products, one in the Dominican Republic and the other for twelve countries worldwide. Professor Norton earned a Ph.D. in Economics at Johns Hopkins University. 001450903 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001450903 650_0 $$aEquality. 001450903 650_0 $$aDistributive justice. 001450903 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001450903 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z3031086325$$z9783031086328$$w(OCoLC)1317833023 001450903 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aNorton, Roger D., 1942- author.$$tStructural inequality$$z9783031086328$$w(OCoLC)1338678612 001450903 852__ $$bebk 001450903 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-08633-5$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001450903 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1450903$$pGLOBAL_SET 001450903 980__ $$aBIB 001450903 980__ $$aEBOOK 001450903 982__ $$aEbook 001450903 983__ $$aOnline 001450903 994__ $$a92$$bISE
