Abstract We review the functional and size theories of income distribution in the context of growing inequality around the world. The causes for the observed patterns on the shares of labour and capital income in classical, neoclassical, Marxian, structuralists or general equilibrium theories are reviewed. Each of these theory is found helpful in explaining the inequality of in income observed in the OECD, emerging and developing economies. Significant empirical evidence exists for declining labour share as shown by panel data estimation of 127 countries from 1990 to 2011.
