Cities, Economic Inequality and Justice: Reflections and Alternative Perspectives

2017 | Business & Finance

The common view in most advanced economies is that urban-economic inequality and segregation are increasing, but the theoretical, empirical and the normative underpinnings of this claim have not often been systematically examined. This makes it difficult to make effective policies. This concise volume will explore all elements of this complex issue, examining issues of definition and distinguishing urban-economic inequality from segregation and other related, but distinct, concepts such as poverty and justice. The book reflects on the measurement challenges of empirical research and considers the effects of inequality and segregation, as well as the effectiveness of different policy approaches.
