Distribution and Growth
The main aim of this project is to find out if there is a relationship between inequality and growth, and if so, point out what the mechanism is behind such a relationship.

Anteprima della tesi: Distribution and Growth
In this section, we shall base our analysis on the paper, “Distributive Politics and Economic Growth”, by Alberto Alesina and Dani Rodrik. The basic implication of their model is that the more unequal the distribution of resources in society, the lower the rate of economic growth. This is because the capital taxation rate will be higher than the growth maximising rate in order to fund redistribution. Our aim is to arrive at the same regression result as Alesina and Rodrik. There will be a sub-section devoted to comparing our estimates with the original study, and then we will test for the existence of heteroskedasticity in our model using the Breusch-Pagan test. We will also carry out an F-test to test the significance of the explanatory variables in the model.Data
