Overview
The Inclusive Prosperity project, a loose network of 12 to 15 economists, is unified by a belief that imbalances in economic power are an important source of distortions in the economy. Spurred by this, the project is converting short, 10-page papers into a co-edited volume and will host a conference. If successful, the project may expand the network and form an important intellectual counterweight to the perception that economics is merely a handmaiden to laissez-faire ideology.
