    Wages for the vast majority of workers have stagnated since the 1980s while productivity has grown. We investigate two coexisting explanations based on rising market power: 1. Monopsony, where dominant firms exploit the limited mobility of their own workers to pay lower wages; and 2. Monopoly, where dominant firms charge too high prices for what they sell, which lowers production and the demand for labor, and hence equilibrium wages economy-wide. Using establishment data from the US Census Bureau between 1997 and 2016, we find evidence of both monopoly and monopsony, where the former is rising over this period and the latter is stable. Both contribute to the decoupling of productivity and wage growth, with monopoly being the primary determinant: in 2016 monopoly accounts for 75% of wage stagnation, monopsony for 25%.

    This paper introduces in statistics the notion of the barycenter of the distribution of a non-negative random variable Y with a positive finite mean μY and the quantile function Q(x). The barycenter is denoted by μX and defined as the expected value of the random variable X having the probability density function fX(x) = Q(x)/μY. For continuous populations, the Gini index is 2μX − 1, i.e., the normalization of the barycenter, which is in the range [0, 1/2], the concentration area is μX − 1/2, and the Gini’s mean difference is 4μY (μX − 1/2). The same barycenter-based formulae hold for normalized discrete populations. The introduction of the barycenter allows for new economic, geometrical, physical, and statistical interpretations of these measures. For income distributions, the barycenter represents the expected recipient of one unit of income, as if the stochastic process that leads to the distribution of the total income among the population was observable as it unfolds. The barycenter splits the population into two groups, which can be considered as “the winners” and “the losers” in the income distribution, or “the rich” and “the poor”. We provide examples of application to thirty theoretical distributions and an empirical application with the estimation of personal income inequality in Luxembourg Income Study Database’s countries. We conclude that the barycenter is a new measure of the location or central tendency of distributions, which may have wide applications in both economics and statistics.
