Undersøgelse af ILO (International Labour Office under FN) viser at globaliseringen og finansialiseringen af økonomien har gjort lønandelen af værditilvæksten stadig mindre igennem 30 år både globalt og i OECD landene. Samtidig afliver den to udbredte forestillinger om: 1. at teknologiudviklingen fremmer indkomstfordelingen. 2. at globaliseringen gavner arbejderne i udviklingslandene. "The Stolper-Samuelson prediction that globalisation would benefit workers in developing and emerging economies does not hold. We fail to find statistically different effects in advanced and developing economies and we find an overall negative contribution of globalisation on wage shares in developing economies. The Stolper-Samuelson theorem does not hold empirically for the past thirty years. These findings have important implications for economic and social policy. They suggest that income distribution is not primarily determined by technological progress, but rather depends on social institutions and on the structure of the financial system. Strengthening the welfare state, in particular changing union legislation to foster collective bargaining, and financial regulation could help increase the wage share with little if any costs in terms of economic efficiency." ilo.org/wcmsp5/groups/public/---ed_protect/---protrav/---travail/documents/publication/wcms_202352.pdf
