%X There has been a remarkable increase in income inequality in the world and especially in developed countries for nearly half a century. However, there is no consensus on the reasons of this increase. One of the reasons that have been mentioned in recent years is the ¡°innovations¡±. Many countries have given importance to innovation and technological process to accelerate economic growth. The main purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between innovation and income inequality within the framework of theoretical and empirical approaches. According to the results of the study, the relationship between innovation and income inequality emerges from different channels. There is a two-way relationship between these two variables and the nature of this relationship may be positive or negative. While the innovation process is necessary to ensure competitive advantage and to increase productivity and economic growth, the relationship between this process and income inequality depends on the socio-economic conditions and the institutional structure
