Abstract
This commentary examines two principal forms of inequality and their evolution
since the 1960s: the division of national income between capital and labour, and
the share of total income held by the top 1 per cent of earners. Trends are linked
to current discussions of inequality drivers such as financialisation, and a brief
time-series analysis of the effects of trade and financial sector growth on top
incomes is presented.
