Income distribution inequality is one of the challenges and problems of every economy. If the inequality of income distribution increases sharply, social discontent will be fueled and the risk of social and political unrest will increase sharply. Considering the importance of the relationship between economic growth and inequality of income distribution and the possibility of differences in this relationship in different countries, this research examines the relationship between economic growth and inequality of income distribution in developed and developing countries and transition economies with the Panel data method reviewed in the period from 2003 to 2019. The findings of the research indicate that in developed countries the Kuznets U-shaped inverted curve has not been confirmed, but it has been confirmed in developing countries. Also, in transitioning economies, the relationship between economic growth and income distribution inequality is not secondary, but linear and inverse. The results of this study can be used in planning and making decisions for the distribution of income among different countries based on the degree of development and forecasting their economic growth.
