Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development

This landmark study on inequality and poverty, which covers all 30 OECD countries, includes chapters on the main features and drivers of inequality, characteristics of poverty, and additional dimensions of inequality -- such as intergenerational mobility, the impact of publicly-provided services, and the distribution of household wealth. The report draws heavily on the LIS data and, even more so, on the LWS data.
