abstract = {The paper contributes to the literature of income inequality and economic growth in two
directions. First, it analyzes the impact of income inequality on economic growth both
through the supply of human capital and the incentive to invent induced by the demand for
better quality goods. Secondly, I decompose Gini-coefficient in two variables, which have
different effect on the economic performance. Thus, our result suggests that the empirical
research on the base of Gini-coefficient can not generate an overall relationship between
income inequality and economic growth.},
