Abstract
This article uses data from the 1998 European Community Household
Panel to study economic inequality in Spain. It reports data on the Spanish
distributions of income, labor income, and capital income, and on related
features of inequality, such as age, employment status, educational attainment,
and marital status. It also reports data on the incomemobility of Spanish households,
and data on income inequality in other European countries and in the
US. We find that income, earnings, and, especially, capital income are very
unequally distributed in Spain and that economic inequality in Spain is well
above the European average.
