This book was released on 2017-04-27 with total page 583 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the United States, some populations suffer from far greater disparities in health than others. Those disparities are caused not only by fundamental differences in health status across segments of the population, but also because of inequities in factors that impact health status, so-called determinants of health. Only part of an individual's health status depends on his or her behavior and choice; community-wide problems like poverty, unemployment, poor education, inadequate housing, poor public transportation, interpersonal violence, and decaying neighborhoods also contribute to health inequities, as well as the historic and ongoing interplay of structures, policies, and norms that shape lives. When these factors are not optimal in a community, it does not mean they are intractable: such inequities can be mitigated by social policies that can shape health in powerful ways. Communities in Action: Pathways to Health Equity seeks to delineate the causes of and the solutions to health inequities in the United States. This report focuses on what communities can do to promote health equity, what actions are needed by the many and varied stakeholders that are part of communities or support them, as well as the root causes and structural barriers that need to be overcome.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is Canada becoming a more polarized society? Or is it a kind-hearted nation that takes care of its disadvantaged? This volume closely examines these differing views through a careful analysis of the causes, trends, and dimensions of inequality to provide an overall assessment of the state of inequality in Canada. Contributors include economists, sociologists, philosophers, and political scientists, and the discussion ranges from frameworks for thinking about inequality, to original analyses using Canadian data, to assessments of significant policy issues, methodologies, and research directions. What emerges is the most detailed picture of inequality in Canada to date and, disturbingly, one that shows signs of us becoming a less just society. An invaluable source of information for policy makers, researchers, and students from a broad variety of disciplines, Dimensions of Inequality in Canada will also appeal to readers interested or involved in public debates over inequality.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper uses the following indicators to describe the economic well-being of rural Canadians: average & median incomes for families & individuals, national & provincial; proportion of families with income below the low income cut-offs; proportion of families with income below the low income measures; measure of the degree of income inequality (Gini coefficient); correlation of in-migration to a community with the measured incidence of low income in the community; and governmental impact on incomes through transfers & taxes. Most of the income data for the paper has been tabulated from the former Survey of Consumer Finances. The majority of the analysis is presented at the national level, except for incomes which are also presented at the provincial level.

This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "From 1981 to 2011, Canada, like many other OECD countries, experienced a sharp increase in income inequality. Using income data from the 20% sample of the long-form censuses and the national household survey, this thesis investigates the changing structure and nature of income inequality across Canadian regions. Analysis of these sub-national geographies of inequality suggest an increasing degree of spatial clustering (both high and low values) of inequality along an east-west divide as well as across the urban-rural spectrum, especially within large metropolitan areas and their surroundings. In fact, over the period of study, I find that large metropolitan areas are the main drivers of the observed increase in inequality at the national level. Levels of inequality in medium and small urban areas are also increasing, whereas on the other hand, for most rural areas inequality appears to remain stable over the last 30 years. To understand the causes of such variations in regional levels of inequality, I develop and estimate a series of spatial panel error regression models. Results suggest that differences in the precariousness of regional labour markets, along with a weak manufacturing sector and increasing inequalities in terms of educational attainment all contribute to more unequal distributions of income. I also identify important differences in these causes across urban and rural regions.Finally, I investigate the effects of income inequality on regional economic growth. Using the standard approach relying on cross-sectional models, the consistent pattern I find is that regions with initially higher levels of inequality do subsequently experience greater average annual growth rates over the long-run (from 1981 to 2011). In contrast, the short-/medium-term responses are different. Results from fixed-effects models point to a negative relationship between inequality and growth. Moreover, across both types of models, I find significant differences between urban and rural regions." --

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Income inequality is rising. A quarter of a century ago, the average disposable income of the richest 10% in OECD countries was around seven times higher than that of the poorest 10%; today, it's around 9½ times higher. Why does this matter? Many fear this widening gap is hurting individuals, societies and even economies. This book explores income inequality across five main headings. It starts by explaining some key terms in the inequality debate. It then examines recent trends and explains why income inequality varies between countries. Next it looks at why income gaps are growing and, in particular, at the rise of the 1%. It then looks at the consequences, including research that suggests widening inequality could hurt economic growth. Finally, it examines policies for addressing inequality and making economies more inclusive.

This book was released on 2003 with total page 39 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper reviews a broad set of concepts & related measures of sub-provincial (or territorial) disparity that can inform the debate about income disparities. It then applies these measures to the Canadian context, using data on income from income tax returns from 1992 to 1999 for about 280 Census divisions covering the entire country. This approach allows an assessment of the rural trends in a broader territorial context that includes most of the Census divisions of Canada. Three dimensions of territorial disparity are considered which focus in particular on the concepts of convergence, concentration, and persistence of disparity. Findings are presented & discussed with regard to such issues as the relationship between income trends & the business cycle, rural versus urban income growth rates, concentration of income in a small number of Census divisions, and the relative stability of disparity conditions. The findings suggest a number of implications for policy & rural analysis.

Book excerpt: "Rising income inequality has been at the forefront of public debate in Canada in recent years, yet there is still much to be learned about the economic forces driving the distribution of earnings and income in this country and how they might evolve in coming years. With research showing that the tax-and-transfer system is less effective than in the past in counteracting growing income disparities, the need for policy-makers to understand the factors at play is all the more urgent. The Institute for Research on Public Policy, in collaboration with the Canadian Labour Market and Skills Researcher Network, has gathered some of the country’s leading experts to provide new evidence on the causes and effects of rising income inequality in Canada and to consider the role of policy. Their research and analysis constitutes a comprehensive review of Canadian inequality trends in recent decades, including changing earnings and income dynamics among middle--class and top earners, wage and job polarization across provinces, and persistent poverty among vulnerable groups. The authors also examine the changing role of education and unionization, as well as the complex interplay of redistributive policies and politics, in order to propose new directions for policy. Amid growing anxieties about the economic prospects of the middle class, Income Inequality: The Canadian Story will inform the public discourse on this issue of central concern for all Canadians."--Publisher's website.

Book excerpt: This report provides a preliminary analysis of the dynamics of change in income & employment in rural areas of Canada, their influence on the risk of social exclusion & disadvantage, and the differences that may arise in relation to their non-rural counterparts. The analysis uses longitudinal data from the Survey of Labour & Income Dynamics, 1993 & 1994. Introductory sections outline the objectives of this research and present some preliminary information on relevant concepts such as poverty & social exclusion. Section 5 investigates the distribution & dynamics of income & wealth as experienced by households & individuals in rural Canada as opposed to their large urban counterparts. Particular emphasis is given to the characteristics of those individuals with low income. Section 6 examines employment patterns, wages, employee characteristics, and the dynamics of employment status across the rural & non-rural samples. The extent to which wage dynamics of low-pay individuals differs between rural & urban areas is also studied. The final section draws conclusions regarding income, wealth, work, & opportunity in rural versus urban areas.
