Income Distribution
Functional distribution of income means the relative factor rewards between labour and capital in production. Personal distribution of income concerns the distribution of income among individuals, households and other units.
The topics of the research are redistribution through taxes and transfers, and inequality, poverty and social exclusion. Distribution of income, consumption and wealth are considered, as well as the evolution of relative factor shares in production over time.
