Abstract
In this article, we revisit the growth distribution trade-off, drawing from the recent theory and empirics of growth. We differentiate between episodes of growth acceleration and episodes of growth maintenance. We show that while there may be a trade-off between growth and distribution during a growth acceleration, there is no trade-off in growth maintenance. During a growth maintenance episode, policies and institutional reforms that improve income distribution may actually be growth-enhancing.
