REVIEW OF INCOME AND WEALTH
Scope & Guideline
Innovating Research in Economic Equity and Growth
Introduction
Aims and Scopes
- Income and Wealth Inequality Analysis:
The journal emphasizes research that investigates the causes, consequences, and measurement of income and wealth inequality, particularly through empirical data and methodological innovations. - Poverty Measurement and Dynamics:
It explores the dynamics of poverty, including multidimensional poverty assessments and the intersection of income, wealth, and social factors influencing poverty. - Intergenerational Mobility:
Research on intergenerational mobility is a core focus, examining how wealth and income are transmitted across generations and their implications for social equity. - Economic Policy and Redistribution:
The journal encourages studies that analyze the effectiveness of economic policies and redistribution mechanisms in addressing inequalities and their impacts on societal well-being. - Impact of Economic Shocks:
It also covers the effects of economic shocks, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, on income distribution and wealth dynamics, reflecting on both short-term and long-term implications. - Use of Advanced Methodologies:
The journal promotes the application of innovative methodologies, such as machine learning and econometric modeling, to enhance the analysis of income and wealth data.
Trending and Emerging
- Impact of COVID-19 on Inequality:
Recent publications have increasingly focused on how the COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated existing inequalities, highlighting the urgent need for research on resilience and recovery strategies. - Use of Machine Learning and Big Data:
There is a rising trend in the application of machine learning and big data analytics to understand and predict patterns of income and wealth dynamics, indicating a shift towards more sophisticated analytical tools. - Intangible Assets and Economic Growth:
Research exploring the role of intangible assets, such as intellectual capital and brand value, in economic growth and inequality is gaining traction, reflecting a broader understanding of wealth beyond physical assets. - Intersectionality in Inequality Studies:
Emerging studies are increasingly addressing the intersectionality of various social categories (e.g., race, gender, and class) in relation to income and wealth disparities, emphasizing a more nuanced approach to understanding inequality. - Regional Inequality and Policy Responses:
There is a growing focus on regional disparities in income and wealth, along with corresponding policy implications, as researchers seek to understand localized effects of broader economic trends.
Declining or Waning
- Historical Inequality Studies:
Research focusing on historical analyses of inequality, such as studies on inequality in pre-industrial societies, has seen a decrease in frequency, possibly due to a shift towards contemporary issues and data-driven insights. - Traditional Economic Growth Models:
There has been a waning interest in traditional economic growth models that do not adequately address inequality, as newer frameworks that incorporate inequality dimensions gain traction. - Sector-Specific Inequality Analyses:
Studies that focus narrowly on specific sectors or industries without broader implications for income and wealth inequality may be less frequently published, as interdisciplinary approaches become more favored. - Single-Dimensional Poverty Measures:
There is a noticeable decline in research centered solely around single-dimensional poverty measures, as the journal increasingly emphasizes multidimensional perspectives.
