Inequality is anisotropic: its intensity is variable along the income scale. Therefore, to focus on local inequalities, a new representation, the isograph, is developed to figure their variations. This leads to the expression of three coefficients able to summarize the shape of inequalities: a...

The isograph methodology is developed here with associated distributions, indicators of inequality, additional results, and is implemented on 53 LIS countries (with an annex covering 655 LIS country-year samples). The gb2 and other classical distributions (FC, Dagum, SinghMaddala) are presented...
