Synopsis

Unlevel Playing Fields provides an exceptionally accessible, one-volume introduction to wage inequality and job discrimination in the U.S. labor market. This engaging textbook presents two important, contrasting economic theories—neoclassical and political economy—and shows how each theory explains labor market inequalities. The authors also offer bold policy proposals to rectify inequality. The third edition has been thoroughly updates, and now includes more than 50 years of employment data and trends.
