Over the last few decades and for the first time since the Industrial Revolution, inequality between countries and between the world’s citizens has dropped. How can we explain this? Has the recent financial crisis reversed previous trends? What do we need to do to reduce inequality even further? And why is the fight against inequality so important?
This debate is organized within the framework of ESADE’s Big Challenges social debate hub, in collaboration with ESADEgeo (Center for Global Economy and Geopolitics)
