摘要：Ideas about what is "fair" above and beyond the individuals' position in the income ladder determine preferences for redistribution.

We show how including fairness explains various observed relationship between inequality, redistribution and growth. We also show how different beliefs about fairness can keep two otherwise identical countries in different development paths for a very long time
