Economic growth and redistribution have been central to the strategies of countries that have drastically reduced poverty. Especially when driven by sectors that provide employment to the poor, growth improves incomes and public revenues, and makes the pursuit of redistributive policies less burdensome on governments and taxpayers. Similarly, when redistributive policies are progressive or universal, they may improve the incomes and wellbeing of the poor and reduce social hierarchies and divisions.
