SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
This volume is a collection of papers presented at the first meeting of the Society for the Study of Economic Inequality (ECINEQ). The Society's aims are to "provide an international forum for all researchers interested in the study of economic inequality and related fields, bringing together the diversity of perspectives." The conference was held in Palma de Mallorca, Spain in July 2005. Over eighty parallel sessions were offered, providing novel and interesting work from both mature scholars and as well as new PhD's. With so much quality work from which to choose, it was necessary to limit.
