Four axioms are introduced in order to characterize the family of pair-based decomposable inequality measures, which is embraced in the class of weakly decomposable inequality measures. Three axioms, namely, normalization by pairs, aggregation by pairs, and decomposition by pairs enable the...

This paper introduces the concept of Pigou-Dalton transfers between populations of income receivers. Gini's mean difference and Dagum's Gini index between populations are axiomatically derived in order to gauge the impact of within- and between-group Pigou-Dalton transfers on Dagum's measure. We...

Nous proposons une nouvelle méthode de décomposition. La multidécomposition de l’indicateur de Gini combine deux méthodes de décomposition : la décomposition en sous-groupes et la décomposition en sources de revenu. La technique retenue est mise en oeuvre dans le cadre d’une étude...
