| Abstract | The discussion about the effects and the mechanisms / channels of income inequality on economic growth gained greater notoriety from the 1990s with the adoption of endogenous growth models. The main concern is to answer why some countries grow more than others and the role of human capital throughout this process. A case study of interesting inequality-growth binomial to be treated is in Latin America after World War II. Therefore, this research aims to investigate the effects of income inequality on economic growth of selected Latin American countries between 1970 and 2010 a theoretical model with a non-monotonic adjustment path of production leading to a model appears linear representing inequality-growth relationship. The empirical strategy is divided into two parts: a) use of estimators of fixed and random effects; b) application of a dynamic model autoregressive lag distributed to co-integrate a panel. The results infer a negative and statistically significant relationship between inequality and growth for the countries of Latin America. These results corroborate the empirical regularity, which indicates that income inequality has a negative effect on the economic growth of developing countries. |
