Chapter Chapter 5 in Formal and Informal Social Safety Nets, 2014, pp 77-103 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract In this chapter, after providing definitions of basic concepts, I talk about some of the factors that may affect income distribution. I discuss the roles of historical, political, and social factors in determining income distribution. Then I turn to the links between income distribution and economic growth. The final section concludes the chapter.
