Synopsis

The wage gap controversy is far from being put to rest. Defenders of markets have long argued that the concept of "equal pay" is a myth; Individuals are responsible for negotiating their own salaries, and if they fail to negotiate well they only have themselves to blame. Critics of this view have replied that negotiation is not always an option; that there is built in bias that cannot be overcome by sheer determination. This anthology provides a collection of essays that present differing viewpoints. Taken together, they offer a diverse array of views on the wage gap. A question-and-response format prompts readers to examine complex topics from multiple angles. Students are encouraged to see the validity of divergent opinions, so that they may understand issues inclusively. Fact boxes are included to summarize important information for researchers.
