Rethinking redistributive policies for regulatory compliance in a democratic developing society

Abstract

In a democratic developing society, policies like the redistributive type should bridge the gap between different segments of the population. The effect of this policy in a developing society cannot be overemphasised as different categories of individual are provided for, in line with extant rules and regulations guiding such policy pronouncement. More so it is one of the strategies for the reduction of inequality and promotion of sustainable development in a society. Taking into consideration the three dimensions, which are, economic, social and environmental. Unfortunately, the non-implementation of this policy renders it ineffective, as lack of political will, interest to fulfill obligations, and pre-modial sentiments poses hindrances. The study adopted the secondary data generational approaches, using the qualitative method. It advocates for a proper implementation of the redistributive policy, in order to adequately cater for the different population and segment of individual groups in the society. When there is a corresponding response from the government towards the development and growth of target groups and individuals in the society, progress could easily be made especially in a developing democratic society where inequality is seen to be prevalent.
