On the occasion of the visit of distinguished economist and policymaker François Bourguignon, the Centre for Social Sciences and Humanities (CSH) is delighted to invite you to “The Globalisation of Inequality” by Professor François Bourguignon, Collège de France

In The Globalisation of Inequality, distinguished economist and policymaker François Bourguignon examines the complex and paradoxical links between a vibrant world economy that has raised the living standard of over half a billion people in merging nations such as China, India, and Brazil, and the exponentially increasing inequality within countries. Exploring globalisation’s role in the evolution of inequality, Bourguignon takes an original and truly international approach to the decrease in inequality between nations, the increase in inequality within nations, and the policies that might moderate inequality’s negative effects.
