当今时代是经济全球化加速和不平等加剧的时代。学术学者和发展专业人员日益认识到，全球化使某些人口处于危险之中。然而，一直没有足够的理论分析和缺乏最新的实证研究，解释当代全球化是如何？影响了不平等和个人的福祉。本研究探讨的条件下，跨国公司的渗透和其他全球化进程？国内收入分配的变化。它的目的是调查是否理论模型，已被证明成功地解释DI？对跨部门收入不平等的研究也有助于了解1980年代和1990年代初收入分配的动态，这是一个以全球化急剧加速为特征的时代。我们提出了一个分析国民收入分配的变化，使用线性回归模型与面板设计。这项研究表明，依赖外国投资作为发展战略，特别是与国内和人力资本投资相比，可能会误导关注平等的国家。扣除其他因素，外商投资依存贝内？收入人群中的精英阶层超过了80%的穷人。我们的分析提供的证据表明，全球化带来的资本/劳动关系的转变，具有重大意义？这是导致世界各地收入不平等加剧的原因之一。
The contemporary era is one of both accelerated economic globalization and rising inequality. There is an increasing awareness among both academic scholars and development professionals that globalization puts certain populations at risk. However, there has been inadequate theoretical analysis and a lack of up to date empirical studies that explain just how contemporary globalization a?ects inequality and the well being of individuals. This study explores the conditions under which TNC penetration and other globalization processes in?uence change in domestic income distribution. Its aim is to investigate whether theoretical models that have proven successful in explaining di?erences in income inequality cross-sectionally also allow for an understanding of the dynamics of income distribution during the 1980s and early 1990s, an era characterized by a dramatic acceleration of globalization. We present an analysis of change in national income distribution using linear regression models with a panel design. This study suggests that dependence on foreign investment as a development strategy, especially compared to domestic and human capital investment, may be misguided for nations concerned with equality. Net of other factors, foreign investment dependence bene?ts the elite segments of the income-earning population over the poorer eighty percent. Our analysis provides evidence of a shift in capital/labor relations brought about by globalization that has signi? cantly contributed to the rise in income inequality seen throughout the world.
