Riassunto:We show empirical evidence that there may not be a tradeoff between market income inequality and high sustained growth, which is key for poverty alleviation. We argue that the economies that achieved high sustained growth and low market income inequality are characterized by dynamism-a drive toward sophisticated export industries, innovation, and creative destruction and a high level of competition.
