摘要

This special issue of the Review of Income and Wealth contains selected papers from the 32nd IARIW General Conference of the IARIW, which was held in Boston on August 5-11, 2012. Like an ellipse with two foci, IARIW general conferences have both a microeconomic theme centered on measuring inequality, and a macroeconomic theme centered on measurement problems related to national accounts, productivity, and price change. Both foci are represented by the papers in this special issue. Although the papers cover a diverse range of measurement topics, they can be grouped into papers on measuring inequality, papers on the drivers of macroeconomic growth, and papers on prices. The first paper on inequality is "Global Inequality: Levels and Trends, 1993-2005; How Sensitive Are These to the Choice of PPPs and Real Income Measures?" David Warner, D. S. Prasada Rao, William Griffiths and Duangkamon Chotikapanic attempt the ambitious objective of measuring the change in a global Gini coefficient from 1993 to 2005, taking into account both the differences between country average per capita income measured using purchasing power parities (PPPs) and within-country inequality (Warner et al., 2014). They use PPPs from the 2005 round of the World Bank's International Comparison Program, but to investigate the sensitivity of the results to the data source used for the PPPs, they also calculate the results implied by other sources of PPPs. Irrespective of the approach used, they find that global inequality is falling, in part because of strong growth in average incomes in China and India.
