In this second episode of #EconomicsOfChildhood, Professor Steven Durlauf addresses the more philosophical aspects of mobility, like fairness and what people deserve. This lecture reminds us that behind all the mathematics and models there is a philosophical question of fairness that economists should consider when analyzing mobility. After supporting the philosophical argument with empirical evidence, he leaves the audience with three key arguments why society should care about mobility: 1. The general well-being of people, 2. That by addressing lack of mobility we also address injustices, and 3. Societies are more productive when they are more mobile.
