Using data for 10 euro area countries, we apply and adapt the Wolff and Zacharias (2013) class schema for the euro area. We confirm stark differences between classes in the functional distribution of income, as well as in the distribution of wealth. The selfemployed occupy a Janus-faced position; they resemble capitalists in terms of income sources, and workers in terms of wealth composition. Focusing on wealth readily differentiates capitalists into financial versus real capitalist classes.","onlinedate":"2016-01-01 00:00:00","lang":"English","publication_series":"Working Paper-Reihe der AK Wien","publication_date":"20160101","publication_date_year":"2016","publication_date_full":false,"publication_num_pages":"29","keywords":"[]","jelcodes":"[]","related_publications":"[]","pdf":null,"zip":null,"link":"http:\/\/emedien.arbeiterkammer.at\/viewer\/ppnresolver?id=AC13379586","monthly_report":false,"monthly_report_main":false,"monthly_report_volume":"","monthly_report_pages":"","monthly_report_pages_sort":"0","issue":"","journal":"","publisher":"Kammer f\u00fcr Arbeiter und Angestellte f\u00fcr Wien","invisible":false,"external":true,"embargo_date":null,"types":[208554],"research_groups":[3655],"collaboration":"","persons":[17197,5051,18251],"persons_data":"[{\"personId\":17197,\"personName\":\"Miriam Rehm\",\"organisationNames\":[]},{\"personId\":5051,\"personName\":\"Asjad Naqvi\",\"organisationNames\":[]},{\"personId\":18251,\"personName\":\"Julia Hofmann\",\"organisationNames\":[]}]","clients":[],"subclients":[],"partners":[],"topics":[],"host_publication_title":"","host_publication_subtitle":"","place_of_publication":"","host_publication_editors":"[]","type_description":"","output_media":"","chapter":"","article_number":"","scientific_assistance":"[]","scientific_review":"[]","version":"","release_date":null,"expiration_date":null,"surveyor":"","research_assistance":"","edv":"","additional_info_de":"","additional_info_en":""},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.3 (Yoast SEO v27.3) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Different but Equal?
