The study examines the relationship between growth-inequality-poverty (GIP) triangle and crime rate under the premises of inverted U-shaped Kuznets curve and pro-poor growth scenario in a panel of 16 diversified countries, over a period of 1990-2014. The study employed panel Generalized Method...

This paper describes the potential of analysing socio-economic inequalities in life expectancy using the German Socio-Economic Panel Study (GSOEP). It includes a short review on available data sources and recent evidence on inequalities in life expectancy for Germany. Subsequently the...

A growing literature uses repeated cross-section surveys to derive 'synthetic panel' data estimates of poverty dynamics statistics. It builds on the pioneering study by Dang, Lanjouw, Luoto, and McKenzie (Journal of Development Economics, 2014) providing bounds estimates and the innovative...

The availability of longitudinal data allows researchers to analyse the dynamics of poverty. By using the Turkish Statistical Institute's (TurkStat) Income and Living Conditions Survey micro dataset, we analyse the households' long-term monetary poverty conditions. We categorise poverty as...

We examine the determinants of low income transitions using first-order Markov models that control for initial conditions effects (those found to be poor in the base year may be a nonrandom sample) and for attrition (panel retention may also be non-random). Our econometric model is a form of...

Different family types may have a fixed flow of consumption costs, related to subsistence needs. We use a survey method in order to identify and estimate such a fixed component of spending for different families. Our method involves making direct questions about the linkup between aggregate...

In this paper, the concept of Income Satisfaction Inequality is operationalized on the basis of individual responses to an Income Satisfaction question posed in the German Socio-Economic Panel (GSOEP). Income satisfaction is the subjective analogue of the objective income concept and includes...
