My research explores a critical question that became salient as a consequence of the four years I spent doing research in Haiti: "Is equity with growth possible? If so, what are the conditions under which that happy outcome might occur?" In addition to analyzing the effects of inequality on growth, I have investigated the impact of various aspects of globalization on well-being and intergroup disparity. A recent project I have undertaken is to consider why researchers investigating the effects of inequality on growth obtain such different and indeed contradictory results. I argue that the measure of inequality matters: household distribution of income has different effects on growth than, for example, gender or ethnic wage inequality because they operate via differing macroeconomic pathways. Over the past several years, I have worked with a number of international organizations and research groups: U.S. Agency for International Development, United Nations Development Programme, United Nations Research Institute for Social Development (UNRISD), and the World Bank. I am a member of the Engendering Macroeconomics and International Trade Project (GEM-IWG), funded by the Ford Foundation, and have taught in their international Knowledge Networking Project at the University of Utah. I am also a Research Scholar at the Political Economy Research Institute at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst. For more details, see my curriculum vitae and research statement. I am also a photographer. Published research Books Berik, G., Y. Rodgers, and S. Seguino (Eds). 2011. Inequality, Development, and Growth. Routledge. Click on link for more info on the book.
