 Redistribution
Redistribution is often understood more narrowly, referring only to socially caused changes in patterns of holdings over time that are implemented (at least in part) for the very reason that they are likely to bring about these changes.
Sometimes redistribution is taken to refer to a particular social mechanism for bringing about changes in holdings overtime — namely, when there has been some prior distribution of resources, and those particular resources have been ‘taken’ away from some of those who initially possessed them and given to others.
Redistributive taxation is also commonly distinguished from Pigouvian (after the economist Arthur Pigou), or what might most aptly called ‘compensation’ taxes, which pay for harms that persons cause to the environment or to other people through their activities.

 ILO-Redistribution Matters: Growth for Poverty Reduction-H. Dagdeviren, R. van der Hoeven, J. Weeks
This redistribution is simulated in Table 4, where it is assumed that one percentage point of total national income is shifted from the top quintile to the bottom quintile, and distributed equally among those households.
The table indicates that for the 'redistribution' countries, a redistribution of current income and assets is the most effective means of poverty reduction, and the methods to achieve this are feasible.
For the 'redistribution with growth' countries, the measures for redistribution of current income and assets are less feasible, but instruments to achieve the more modest goal of redistributing the growth increment would be feasible.

Once we broaden the notion of what counts as a program of redistribution, it becomes clear that we already engage in some degree of racial (white-to-fl) redistribution, some of which is controversial and some of which, apparently, is not.
I also discuss a range of in-kind redistributive programs, from race-based affirmative-action programs to federal funding of urban housing and educational programs to certain types of anti-discrimination law, all of which may be constitutional, depending on their particular design details.

 Redistribution of Income, by Dwight R. Lee: The Concise Encyclopedia of Economics: Library of Economics and Liberty
Since the Great Depression most Americans have agreed that a principal responsibility of government is to redistribute income from the well-to-do to the impoverished and to those who are temporarily disadvantaged, most notably the unemployed.
