Urbanization can help reduce income inequality
G. Wan, X. Zhang, et al.
This paper by Guanghua Wan, Xiaoling Zhang, and Mengxue Zhao explores how urbanization can actually help decrease income inequality in developing countries, particularly the least developed ones. It challenges the common belief that urbanization worsens inequality by illustrating the positive effects of urbanization on narrowing the urban-rural income gap. The research advocates for well-managed urbanization as a key strategy in tackling poverty and inequality.
