This report is the third OECD flagship publication on trends, causes and remedies to growing inequalities. The 2008 report Growing Unequal? documented and analysed the key features and patterns of trends in income inequality in OECD countries. The 2011 publication Divided We Stand: Why Inequality Keeps Rising analysed the deep-rooted reasons for rising inequality in advanced and most emerging economies. In It Together: Why Less Inequality Benefits All highlights the key areas where inequalities originate and where new policy approaches are required. It takes a fresh look at the question how trends in inequality have affected economic growth and through which channels; looks at the consequences of the recent period of crisis and fiscal consolidation on household incomes; analyses the impact of structural labour market changes, such as rising nonstandard work, job polarisation and profound changes in women’s employment and earnings; documents levels of wealth concentration and indebtedness; and discusses the role for redistribution policies in OECD and emerging economies. The report also discusses a range of promising policy practices to tackle high inequality and promote equality of opportunities.
