The Granger-causality between income and educational inequality : a spatial cross-regressive VAR framework
Educational level ; Employment ; Europe ; European Union ; Regional disparities ; Wage
This paper tests the causal processes between income and educational inequality within regions of the European Union, using a spatial cross-regressive VAR framework. The results show that there is a heterogeneous causality from income inequality
to educational inequality and vice versa, and interregional income and educational externalities are relevant to this causality. This finding raises potentially interesting economic policy implications.

Metropolitan income inequality during the 1980s : the impact of urban development, industrial mix, and family structure
Family income ; Labour market ; Living standard ; Model ; Regional disparities ; Socio-economic system ; Town ; United States of America ; Wageinequality
The empirical models presented here show that the interurban variation in income inequality can be explained by two factors : the level of urban development and variations in the urban characteristics of family and industrial structure
. A decomposition of 1979 and 1989 cross-sectional models reveal that while changes in urban family and industrial characteristics have been sources of rising inequality, there has been significant structural change in the urban models acting to decrease inequality.
