The "Great Gatsby Curve" is the term given to the positive empirical relationship between cross-sectional income inequality and persistence of income across generations. [1] The scatter plot shows a correlation between income inequality in a country and intergenerational income mobility (the potential for its citizens to achieve upward mobility).

Theme #1: Weaker population growth = slower global economic growth. With younger households having fewer children and slowing population growth, Goldman thinks that demographics will put pressure ...
The Elephant Curve, also known as the Lakner-Milanovic graph or the global growth incidence curve, is a graph that illustrates the unequal distribution of income growth for individuals belonging to different income groups. [1] The original graph was published in 2013 and illustrates the change in income growth that occurred from 1988 to 2008.
