Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this project is to explore the relationships between political-institutional factors and redistributions of labor incomes in advanced countries. In the first part of this research, we focused not only on the role of corporatist labor institutions (such as collective bargaining centralization), but also on the formal institutions (e.g. electoral rule, and government-parliament relations) and the governmental capacity (including policy coordination), and then we shed new theoretical lights on the links between the labor institutions and the policy coordination capacities. Next, we conducted an empirical analysis and found that such corporatist institutions have been effective in the income equalization. Finally, we suggest that some of formal institutions e.g. proportional representative systems have significant effects on income equality, but are not necessarily determinants in the income redistribution.
