Economic growth and income concentration and their effects on poverty in Brazil

We use panel data for Brazilian states from 1995 to 2009 to analyse the impact of economic growth and income inequality on poverty change in Brazil, seeking to evaluate the Bourguignon (2003) hypothesis that the more unequal a country is, the less effective economic growth will be at reducing povert...

To this end, we estimate poverty elasticities relative to income and inequality, specifying two dynamic econometric models estimated via the generalized method of moments (GMM) system developed by Arellano and Bond (1991), Arellano and Bover (1995) and Blundell and Bond (1998). The model-estimated results prompt the conclusion that the income growth effect on poverty reduction is smaller when the initial development level is low. The same is found when the initial inequality level is high. Therefore, regions with a low initial development level, high initial inequality or both present less favourable conditions for reducing poverty through income growth. 2018-04-10T21:06:07Z 2018-04-10T21:06:07Z 2017-12 Texto Sección o Parte de un Documento http://hdl.handle.net/11362/43457 LC/PUB.2017/24-P 2 en CEPAL Review CEPAL Review 123 .pdf application/pdf 1995 BRASIL BRAZIL 2009
