abstract: 'The rise in inequality in most industrial countries has drawn attention
to the social and economic processes underlying it. This study examines
how changing educational attainment and employment patterns of women
(mainly) are impacting households'' income distribution, with Israel as a
case study. The level of income inequality in Israel, which is one of
the highest in the Western world, has risen significantly in recent
decades, along with a rise in education and labor force participation,
especially among women. Using counterfactual analysis of the Theil index
between the years 1983 and 2008, our findings show that the share of
highly educated households has soared, together with a rise in the share
of fulltime dual-earner households. There has also been an increase in
the share of doubly fortunate households: both highly educated and
fulltime dual-earner. All these changes have contributed to the rise in
income inequality. The study emphasizes the importance of the joint
change in educational attainment and participation level as an important
mechanism behind the rise in income inequality.'
