Ruth-Aïda Nahum 2005

Arbetsrapport 2005 nr.3

This paper explores the relationship between income inequality and growth using panel data on Swedish counties from 1960-2000. Yearly regional level data are used and inequality is allowed to be endogenous. A significant positive impact of inequality on growth is found, but the magnitude of effects decreases with the length of the studied period.
