Abstract

The distribution of income in the long run between the major factors of production, capital and labor is one of the major themes in economic theory. A good characterization of the major theories is given by Kaldor [5] and a picture of the present state of the art is obtained from Marchai, Ducros [60] and Bronfenbrenner [20]. At present there are two major lines of thought, namely marginal productivity theory and savings-investment theory.
