Relative Deprivation with Imperfect Information
Verme, Paolo; Izem, Rima - In: Economics Bulletin 4 (2008) 7, pp. 1-9
The paper proposes an alternative index of relative deprivation which allows for selection of the reference group and imperfect information, two central elements of modern theories of social justice. An application to real data and a simulation on artificial data illustrate the use and some...

Two Classes of Generalized Deprivation Indexes
Verme, Paolo - In: Economics Bulletin 31 (2011) 3, pp. 2021-2029
The paper uses two particular formulations of the Gini index to derive two different relative deprivation measures. We then generalize the formulation of these measures following Donaldson and Weymark (1980) and Berrebi and Silber (1985) and show how these generalizations can be considered as...
