This paper examines the effect of democratization on income inequality in third-wave democracies in Africa and East Asia. It discusses why income inequality rises at a much faster rate in developing countries than in developed countries. To explain the divergence, it argues a better understanding of the patterns of democratization and the consequences of corruption in new democracies is required.
