Outline of Final Research Achievements

This study examines a method of social evaluation associated with inequality and poverty, and addresses the analysis of public policies. First, we investigate a possibility of extending informational basis of social evaluation. Second, we extend the "intersection approach", which is a core principle of evaluating inequality and poverty. Third, we revisit "welfare economics" of Arthur Pigou, and argue that the reduction of inequality and poverty is at the core of his welfare economics. Fourth, we examine a possible improvement of resource allocation by industrial and labor policies.
