Resumo(s)
This paper applies the concept of inequality regime, in the tradition of the Regulation
School, to the analysis of the patterns and drivers of socioeconomic inequality in
Portugal in the last few decades. Key empirical patterns are identified with respect to
income inequality, top and bottom incomes, wealth inequality, monetary poverty and
non-commodified provision of basic goods. We then discuss several underlying processes
and mechanisms, namely the capital-labour relation, classification struggles,
financialisation, redistribution, and welfare, to account for the identified empirical
patterns. We conclude that Portugal’s inequality regime is remarkably contradictory
and argue that the country’s success in curbing most measures of inequality in recent
times is especially vulnerable to a variety of pressures.
