Growing Into and Out of Social Conflict
We develop a model of growth and distributional conflict which demonstrates that social tensions may peak at an intermediate development stage. In fact, unless the economy is caught in an underdevelopment trap, the relationship between average wealth and the likelihood of radical redistribution tends to be hump–shaped: while the net benefits of redistribution for the poor are small at low development stages, moving towards egalitarianism consider…
Solow and Heterogeneous Labour: A Neoclassical Explanation of Wage Inequality
This paper analyses the effect of human‐capital investments of heterogeneous individuals on the dynamics of the wage structure within a neoclassical growth model. The accumulation of physical capital changes relative factor prices and thus incentives to acquire skills, thereby altering the composition of the labour force. Without relying on exogenous shocks, our framework generates dynamics that resemble important observations on wage inequality …
