Globalisation, Polarisation and US Policy Activism

Abstract

Money, goods, and ideas cross national borders with ever more ease; ever more economic activity is conducted outside national regulatory jurisdictions. Mainstream macroeconomists agree that increased income inequality is the consequence of this globalisation: technical change and freer cross-border flows of capital and goods have increased the demand for technically-adept labour, and decreased that for less-skilled labour. Social policies interfering with the free play of market forces can temporarily stave off greater income inequality, but only at the expense of increased longer-run unemployment and stagnation.
