摘要

这项工作旨在为最近实证分析劳动力市场不平等与经济增长之间关系的文献做出贡献。为此，我们通过使用收入最高的10%工人的工资与收入最低的40%工人的工资之间的比率（10/40比率）来衡量工资不平等，从而捕捉到两个极端工薪阶层之间的工资差距。我们还使用了面板数据建模方法，假设所研究的主要关系是内生的，并在2004年至2017年间对189个国家进行了抽样。我们的研究结果表明，工资不平等对经济增长产生了负面影响。

Mind the wage gap: an empirical analysis of the impact of labour income inequality on economic growth*

This work aims to contribute to recent literature that empirically analyses the relationship between inequality in the labour market and economic growth. To do so, we measured wage inequality by using the ratio between the wages of the 10% of workers with the highest earnings and the wages of the bottom 40% of workers with the lowest earnings (10/40 ratio), capturing the wage gap between the two extreme classes of wage earners. We also used a panel data modelling approach, assuming that the main relationship studied is endogenous, and a sample with 189 countries in the period between 2004 and 2017. Our findings indicate a negative effect of wage inequality on economic growth.

期刊介绍： The Review of Keynesian Economics (ROKE) is dedicated to the promotion of research in Keynesian economics. Not only does that include Keynesian ideas about macroeconomic theory and policy, it also extends to microeconomic and meso-economic analysis and relevant empirical and historical research. The journal provides a forum for developing and disseminating Keynesian ideas, and intends to encourage critical exchange with other macroeconomic paradigms. The journal is dedicated to the development of Keynesian theory and policy. In our view, Keynesian theory should hold a similar place in economics to that held by the theory of evolution in biology. Many individual economists still work within the Keynesian paradigm, but intellectual success demands institutional support that can leverage those individual efforts. The journal offers such support by providing a forum for developing and sharing Keynesian ideas. Not only does that include ideas about macroeconomic theory and policy, it also extends to microeconomic and meso-economic analysis and relevant empirical and historical research. We see a bright future for the Keynesian approach to macroeconomics and invite the economics profession to join us by subscribing to the journal and submitting manuscripts.
