Prof. Eugenio Peluso who leads the Department of Living Conditions at LISER (Luxembourg Institute of Socio-Economic Research) started his research journey looking at inequality within a household. Then he expanded his horizon and this is exactly what he showed us in the episode - various projects looking at different types of inequality. Expect also a very peculiar pub quiz question involving Robin Hood!
