Munduch, Pavel

This bachelor thesis aims to explore the contemporary issue of income inequali- ty/equality in European context. Exploring the already existing literature and looking at unbalanced panel data from 41 European countries and observa- tions from the 1992-2014 period, this works seeks for anysystematic evidence of causal determinants in regards to incresing or reducing income inequality. Variables such economic growth, education, religion, tax, democracy or corrup- tion are included in the analysis. After carrying out the process of choosing fitting model, testing for serial correlation or heteroskedasticity and applying robust errors, the significant effects turned to be present in trade, taxes, cor- ruption and democracy areas. Implying that increase in trade to GDP ratio, improvingdemocracy,fightingcorruptionandincreasedtaxincomesresultin lower income inequality.
