Income Inequalities in the Age of Financial Globalization. nternational Labour Organization, International Institute for Labour Studies
There is evidence that social confl ict grows when inequalities are perceived to be rising excessively. Social support for pro-growth policies will be eroded if low-income groups and the middle class believe that such policies do little to improve their situation or that of their children, while benefi ting high-income groups. Surveys suggest a declining tolerance among respondents vis-à-vis growing inequality.Source
