Abstract

There is a growing consensus among scholars that one of the biggest drivers of income inequality in the United States is government activity (or inactivity). While many Americans look to the federal government to take action to combat inequality, William Franko and Christopher Witko assert that it is the states that are best positioned and most likely to actually do something about it. 'The New Economic Populism' argues that over time, more egalitarian policies at the state level will spread across to other states and, eventually, to the federal level
