Poverty, Inequality and Economic Growth: the Case of Post-Soviet Countries
Ren, Jiayi ; Holub, Tomáš (advisor) ; Li, Yating (referee) ; Svoboda, Karel (referee)
This paper empirically examines the triangular relationship between poverty, growth, and income inequality in 13 post-Soviet countries between 1998 and 2020. Regression results reveal that economic growth has a significant negative impact on poverty while income inequality has a significant positive impact on poverty. Initial conditions (both initial economic growth and initial income inequality) matter in explaining the change of poverty. Poverty tends to be more responsive to the change of income inequality. Growth effect and inequality effect varied across different subgroups. Moreover, mutual causality has been found between poverty and income inequality while the unidirectional impact of income inequality on growth is inverted- U shaped. Finally, a significant moderation effect of economic growth on the linkage between poverty and income inequality has been found.
Význam politických a institucionálních faktorů růstu v postsovětských zemích
Náplava, Radek
Diploma thesis focuses on chosen political and institutional factors and their rela-tion to long-run growth in post-soviet countries. Political and institutional environment represents three areas: bureaucracy (Doing Business), freedom (Free-dom House) and governance matters. For quantification of their influence is used static and dynamic panel data analysis. Results show the importance of govern-ance matters for long-run growth. Political stability, quality of political process and civil liberties also have positive impact while voice and accountability has negative. In view of the fact that results come from static panel data models, we cannot exclude the presence of endogeneity.
