fractionalization and group antagonism reduce the support for redistribution. Whereas within group inequality increases support for … redistribution, inequality between groups has the opposite effect. All these results hold even if a poor group is in majority. Using … a panel data set for the US constructed from micro data, I find support for the hypothesis that within race inequality …
