Abstract
This study explores how income inequality and defence burden affects economic growth in different parts of the world. We follow an endogenous growth model that proposes a negative relationship of growth with income inequality and defence burden. The implications of the model are tested using panel data. The results suggest a negative relationship of growth with income inequality and defence burden. A by-product of this analysis is the conclusion regarding convergence. Our study finds no support for convergence across the world.
