We document a U-shaped evolution of inequalities from the end of the nineteenth century until today: (1) inequality was high before WWII; (2) abruptly fell after the introduction of communism in 1947 and stagnated at low levels during the whole communist period; (3) experienced a sharp rise with the return to capitalism in 1989. We find that official survey-based measures strongly under-estimate the rise in inequality since 1989. Our results highlight the prominent role of capital income in driving the U-shaped evolution of top income shares. The unique inequality history of Poland speaks to the central role of institutions and policies in shaping inequality in the long run.</p><p><strong>Supplementary information: </strong>The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s10887-021-09190-1.</p>","PeriodicalId":48110,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Economic Growth","volume":"26 2","pages":"187-239"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1007/s10887-021-09190-1","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"39622577","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our endogenous growth model embodies these components and utilizes historical time series data on labor force \"operatives\" and the Census of Manufactures to calibrate the model's parameters. Our simulation closely matches the 1.88% average per capita product growth in the United States from 1860 to date. The simulation predicts that growth will peak in 1980 and ultimately converge to 1.31%-a growth slowdown rooted from the beginning in the economization of skilled labor inherent in the American System.
