| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In recent years, disparities in socioeconomic status and wealth disparities have become a serious social problem. Recent research has shown that the intergenerational correlation of socioeconomic status is high and that socioeconomic status tends to be passed on from generation to generation. However, the extent to which intergenerational transfers (for example, educational investments, bequests, and inter vivos transfers from parents to children) contribute to the intergenerational transmission of socioeconomic status and inequality has not been investigated. In this research, we used micro data from household surveys conducted in Japan and other countries to show the extent to which various types of intergenerational transfers have contributed to the intergenerational transmission of socioeconomic status and of inequality and then derive policy implications about how to alleviate inequality.
