Carl Kaysen, director of the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton University, last night said that the United States should want not only a distribution of equality but also fraternity.
The lecture in Ames Courtroom at the Law School was the last of the Kennedy School of Government's 1976 Godkin Lectures.
Kaysen discussed the distribution of wealth, income and political power and the trends towards equity in the past few decades in these three areas. He also speculated on the trends of the next decade.
Kaysen said changes in taxation would cause upward mobility in the lower income levels. Kaysen also said that the increase in the level of education would cause increased distribution of political participation and especially an increased number of people on the activist end of the spectrum.
