Zusammenfassung

Die wissenschaftliche Diskussion in Bezug auf die personelle Einkommensverteilung hat ungleich mehr Gehör gefunden als jene über die funktionale Einkommensverteilung. Als unumstritten gilt mittlerweile die Tatsache, dass die Einkommenskonzentration in den letzten Jahrzehnten zugenommen hat (Aiginger und Guger, 2014; Piketty und Saez, 2007; Piketty, 2007b, 2014; Corneo, 2015; Bönke et al., 2015). Betrachtet man Ansätze, die die steigende Einkommenskonzentration als Erklärung für die ”Great Recession“ diskutieren, wurde am ausführlichsten die ”Rajan-Hypothese“ diskutiert. Rajan (2010) geht davon aus, dass untere und mittlere Bevölkerungsschichten ihren relativen Einkommensrückgang, der aus der steigenden personellen Einkommenskonzentration resultiert, durch fallende Sparquoten und steigende Kreditfinanzierung ausgeglichen haben.

Die relative Einkommenstheorie nach Duesenberry (1949) geht davon aus, dass der Konsum weder ausschließlich vom derzeitigen Einkommen noch vom Lebenseinkommen abhängt, sondern vor allem von der gesellschaftlichen Stellung. Gesellschaftsschichten neigen demnach dazu, ihren gewohnten Lebensstandard beizubehalten, auch wenn ihr Realeinkommen sinkt.

Top-Einkommen, Gini-Koeffizient, Anteil der Bevölkerung unter der Armutsschwelle.

Atkinson und Morelli (2011), S. 48 fassen hier „Konsumkrisen“ und „Wirtschaftskrisen im Sinne eines fallenden Bruttoinlandsprodukts“ unter dieser Bezeichnung zusammen.
