A fundamental question in social sciences relates to the effect of wealth inequality on economic growth. Yet, in … tackling the question, researchers have had to use income as a proxy for wealth. We derive a global measure of wealth … and poverty. We find that wealth inequality reduces economic growth, but when we control for the fact that some …

We develop Markov wealth … processes in which parents' investments in children stochastically determine children's wealth, and consequently their own … others, and that their presence dominates the stationary behavior of the wealth distribution.
