investigates long-term changes in income inequality and poverty in China. Income inequality rose before 2007 and then fell by a … small amount. The main reason for the rise in income inequality was that high-income percentiles had faster income growth … than lower percentiles; the fall in income inequality implies faster income growth among low-income percentiles.

This note proposes a relative bipolarization quasi-ordering based on Between-Group Gini (BGG) curves, which is consistent with the quasi-ordering generated by relative bipolarization indices satisfying key axioms. Therefore the quasi-ordering induced by BGG curves is identical to the one induced...

Using FADN data, we analyse the development of income inequality in Swiss agriculture for the valley, hill and mountain … regions over the period 1990–2009. While household income inequality remained stable, farm income inequality increased during … this period. Estimated Gini elasticities show that household income inequality is reduced by off-farm income and direct …
