Abstract

The welfare of a country is related to how equitably its national income is distributed, rather than its wealth. The increase in income inequalities between individuals or social classes causes the deterioration of social peace and stability and a slowdown in economic development and growth. In this study, the effect of more than one socio-economic factor on income inequalities was examined in 35 developing countries. The 2019 data compiled for the selected countries were analyzed with the ARAS method. From the findings of the ARAS method, which was carried out using the aforementioned weighting method, it was determined that the countries with the best performance in terms of income justice were Chechia, Estonia, Slovakia, Thailand, and Hungary. The results of the analysis showed that Colombia, Brazil, Mexico, Bolivia, and Bangladesh were the countries with the highest income inequality. The ARAS findings used in the study are theoretically and expectedly satisfactory.
