Product Description
Rising wage inequality has been kept under the gunpoint of many countries over the last decades. Policymakers see it as a significant threat that leads to economic misbalance, and thus requires adjustments for the fiscal and social support sectors. Labor force aspired to better wages, puzzle over education, skills and personal characteristics to join the advancing top. Uncertainty is especially strong in transition countries, where further complications result from unstable environment with shifting economic values and demands. The focus of this book is on inequality in Russia - a country that experienced one of the highest wage distortions in the world. The study applies a wide range of empirical tools in a remarkably panoramic timeline, which starts just before the collapse of communism and goes thoroughly through the next two decades. This book addresses to economists, policymakers and scholars who are interested in a sustainable economy growth, as it provides a valuable empirical evidence for economic theories. The logical concept carefully developed through the chapters could serve as an excellent methodological guide for researchers examining wage inequality and/or gender discrimination.Wage, Gap, Inequality, Russia, Human Capital, Transition, Labor Economics, Gender

 | Far From Home, by K. Taylor Aug 1, 2008 |
| This book, Far From Home, is an excellent resource for people interested in trauma associated with homelessness. It focuses on homeless men and women over 18 years of age in the Sydney area, but findings are most likely applicable to the large population of homeless adults in other countries such as the US, UK and France. There are two major studies reported in the book - the first study details the experience of trauma and prevalence of PTSD in homeless adults, and interestingly reports that trauma frequently precedes homelessness. The second study looks more closely at the nature of the post-traumatic cognitions and early maladaptive schemas amongst these homeless adults. The findings are interesting, unprecedented and invaluable to anyone working within this area, or anyone with an interest in the experiences and thought processes of homeless men and women. Highly recommended. | | | Write your own review about "Wage Inequality in Russia": Human Capital Prices and Inequality Dynamics in 1985-2004
