Fifty Years of Regional Inequality in China: a Journey Through Central Planning, Reform, and Openness

Ravi Kanbur, Xiaobo Zhang · 28 Jan 2005

Abstract The paper constructs and analyzes a long‐run time series for regional inequality in China from the Communist Revolution to the present. There have been three peaks of inequality in the last fifty years, coinciding with the Great Famine of the late 1950s, the Cultural Revolution of the late 1960s and 1970s, and finally the…

Income Inequality is not Harmful for Growth: Theory and Evidence

Hongyi Li, Heng‐Fu Zou · 1 Oct 1998

The paper shows that income inequality may theoretically lead to higher economic growth if public consumption enters the utility function.

I use a three‐dimensional panel dataset, combining the donor, recipient and time dimensions, which shows a lot of heterogeneity in donor behavior. Thanks…

Investigation into the causes of the conflict would suggest that grievance rather than greed is the main motivating force. The concept of horizontal or intergroup inequality, with both an ethnic and caste dimension, is highly relevant in explaining…

Technology Adoption in the Presence of Constraints: the Case of Fertilizer Demand in Ethiopia

André Croppenstedt, Mulat Demeke, Meloria Meschi · 1 Feb 2003

Using a nationally representative dataset, and information on why farmers did not purchase fertilizer, the authors estimate a double–hurdle fertilizer adoption model for Ethiopia. Access is an overriding constraint in four zones. Credit is shown to be a major supply–side constraint, suggesting that household cash resources are generally insufficient to cover fertilizer purchases. On the…
