Abstract
As the world economy becomes more globalized, income disparity among nations is becoming more apparent. A review of the economic consequences concerning this issue is vital to developing future policy. This analysis assesses the impact of globalization on economic inequality, differentiating between developed and developing countries. Through a combination of a large-N quantitative component and comparative, process-tracing case studies, it gauges the varying impact of globalization's effect on income inequality in these different contexts. The study highlights the role of trade, integration, and tariffs in an international marketplace. As theorized, this analysis finds that globalization generally has a positive impact on inequality in developing countries, and a generally negative impact on inequality in developed countries.
