Heterogeneous Productivity in Voluntary Public Good Provision : An Experimental Analysis

Inequality, Inequity Aversion, and the Provision of Public Goods
Kölle, Felix - 2011
We investigate the effects of inequality in wealth on the incentives to contribute to a public good when agents are inequity averse and may differ in ability. We show that equality may lead to a reduction of public good provision below levels generated by purely selfish agents. But introducing...
