Does ethnic segregation matter for spatial inequality?
研究了71个不同经济发展水平国家中种族隔离与空间不平等的关系，发现种族隔离显著加剧空间不平等，且政治分权和政府质量是重要传导渠道。
The article examines the link between ethnic segregation and spatial inequality in 71 countries with different levels of economic development. The results reveal that ethnic segregation is associated with significantly higher levels of spatial inequality. This finding is not affected by the inclusion of various covariates that may influence both spatial inequality and the geographical distribution of ethnic groups, and is confirmed by a number of robustness tests. The results also suggest that political decentralisation and government quality could act as transmission channels linking ethnic segregation and spatial inequality.
