Growing income inequality is a serious problem economically and sociopolitically as, for example, income inequality above a certain level dampens growth.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>Joseph Stiglitz<\/strong>, together with OECD Chief Statistician <strong>Martine Durand<\/strong>, has brought together a group of international experts to address these issues worldwide and call for a new understanding of growth in which growth is inclusive.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Therefore, the Bertelsmann Stiftung has invited these two experts together with <strong>Prof. Dr. Christoph Schmidt<\/strong>, President of the Rheinisch-Westf\u00e4lisches Institut f\u00fcr Wirtschaftsforschung (RWI) in order to let them discuss about this serious and important topic.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">We are all looking forward to hear what the top-class guests have to say!
