Founding Director William A. Darity Jr. served as editor, with Isabel Ruiz, of the Autumn 2024 issue of the Oxford Review of Economic Policy, discussing topics on the themes of caste, class, and race.
This issue of the Oxford Review of Economic Policy examined various aspects of inequality and different policy responses across many contexts, countries, and regions. In their introductory article, Darity and Ruiz use stratification economics as a framework to understand these shared global patterns.
Their article further reviews the papers published in the issue that explore topics such as social mobility, social exclusion, the role of artificial intelligence, and the importance of data collection to address these persistent inequalities.
