InequaliTalks
A Podcast about Economics and Inequality
About the show
What is the most unequal region of the world? How deep does gender discrimination run in our societies? What happens to poor households during a housing boom? How is land distributed today? How can minimum wage reduce racial inequality? Can we really expect politicians to fix inequality? InequaliTalks presents accessible research done by young economists on one of the most pressing issues in the public conversation: inequality.
InequaliTalks is supported by School of Cities at the University of Toronto.
