Junwook Chi

Summary: This study finds that GDP per capita in developed countries has a negative impact on income inequality, while it has a positive effect in developing countries. The relationship between tourism revenue and income inequality differs across developed and developing economies, with income inequality worsening as tourism revenue increases in developing economies but having an insignificant effect in developed economies. Additionally, capital investment in the travel industry has a significant short-run effect on income inequality in developing economies, but not in developed economies.
