Some notes about the relation between the distribution of income and the distribution of property

From the very beginning of his career as an economist Heinz Kurz has been a devoted scholar of classical political economy (see Kurz, 1977). I know of no other economist with a comparable knowledge about the classics and the classical approach who, at the same time, is so intimately acquainted with competing schools of thought and the latest developments in modern economics (see, for example, Kurz, 1998; Kurz and Salvadori, 1998).
