Call For Papers - 3rd Workshop on Wealth Inequality, Economic Mobility and Labor Markets

Conference Theme

We are delighted to announce a workshop on wealth inequality, economic mobility and labor markets. We are especially interested in work using administrative and other high-quality or innovative data to study one or several of the following:

• Economic mobility over the life course, including career trajectories and their interaction with intergenerational processes

• The role of labor markets, macroeconomic conditions, and employers in shaping economic mobility

• The link between institutions (such as vocational education, trade unions, and minimum wage policies) and labor market outcomes

• Social contacts in hiring, job mobility, retention, promotion, and access to leadership positions

• Family background, inheritance, and the transmission of advantage across generations

• Wealth taxation and its impact on inequality and economic mobility

• The geography of inequality and economic mobility
