[URPE] Sources for Atlas of Global Inequalities

[Ben Crow]

Dear URPE members,

I am working with a team of students to produce a print Atlas of 
Global Inequalities to be published by UC Press and Myriad Editions.

I would love any suggestions or advice you can offer. But I have two 
questions in particular on which I need your help:

1) Where can I get a breakdown of government expenditures, for as 
many countries as feasible, on inequality, social spending and 
similar? The World Bank data I have been looking at in World 
Development Indicators is limited.

2) Is there a literature or data source on transfers from rich to 
poor by various means?

Thanks very much for your help. Data for individual countries would also help.
