Apart from economic, demographic, and social factors, the book highlights political factors that obstruct redistributive policies. In contrast to conventional studies on advanced democracies, which emphasize the relations between different classes, this study asserts that several political factors cause malfunctioning of democratic institutions at various phases of the political process in emerging democracies: multidimensional preferences, the failure of the political market, and weak state capacity. The book employs econometric methods to examine the effects of these political factors. The results indicate their significant effects. The multilevel analysis using the World Values Survey demonstrates that multidimensional preferences, operationalized as ethnic fractionalization, weaken demand for income inequality. Political market quality and state capacity are measured by the age of the largest opposition party, and the Quality of Government indicator is used for the unbalanced panel analysis covering the 1985-2012 period for 75 democracies. Both political market quality and state capacity reduce inequality, but the latter takes more time to show its effect. 000753435 650_0 $$aEconomics$$xPolitical aspects. 000753435 650_0 $$aIncome distribution$$xPolitical aspects. 000753435 650_0 $$aNew democracies. 000753435 7001_ $$aHazama, Yasushi,$$d1961-$$eauthor. 000753435 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aKawanaka, Takeshi$$tPolitical Determinants of Income Inequality in Emerging Democracies$$dSingapore : Springer Singapore,c2016$$z9789811002564 000753435 830_0 $$aSpringerBriefs in economics. 000753435 85280 $$bebk$$hSpringerLink 000753435 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-981-10-0257-1$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000753435 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:753435$$pGLOBAL_SET 000753435 980__ $$aEBOOK 000753435 980__ $$aBIB 000753435 982__ $$aEbook 000753435 983__ $$aOnline 000753435 994__ $$a92$$bISE
