Further Researches and Policy Implications

Abstract

We examine the implications of the diagnoses made in the preceding four chapters for further researches and for globalization-consistent anti-inequality policies. The general diagnosis on the globalization-inequality nexus and the related major mechanisms are firstly reminded, and their consequences on researches and estimates of the impact of globalization on inequality are highlighted. Several possible new fields of research on the determinants and impacts of globalization on inequality are subsequently put forward. We finally tackle the issue of globalization-consistent anti-inequality policies.
