Keywords: equity; economic growth; poverty; income distribution.
Summary/Abstract: This paper is focused on equity-growth relationship: growth can be stimulated without increasing inequality and without a preceding redistribution of incomes. In other words: neither is inequality the price nor equality the precondition of growth. In most cases the challenge is how to find a path of economic expansion, which is associated with an increasing income share for the poor.
