[2004] introduced the bidimensional decomposition of the Gini ratio, where both sub-groups and income sources are jointly … analysed in a decomposition context. These two methodologies are combined in order to evaluate the differences in … multidimensional poverty within and between sub-groups of population, and to determine the dimensions that tend to increase inequality …

decomposition of the Gini coefficient and generalize it, in some cases, to the decomposition of other inequality indices. For the …Decomposing inequality indices across household groups or income sources is useful in estimating the contribution of … each component to total inequality. This can help policy makers draw efficient policies to reduce disparities in the …

This paper argues that the assumption of a homogeneous workforce, which is implicitly invoked in the decomposition … of these changes has been less important in reducing income inequality. The main driving force of reduced income … inequality has been the fall in returns to education, which at the same time has been one of the important factors to …

In this paper, we investigate the long-term trend of consumption inequality in Mozambique. We show that an imbalanced … growth path disproportionally benefited the better-off and caused increasing inequality, especially in more recent years …, curbing the necessary reduction in poverty. Using a regression decomposition technique, our results suggest that this trend …

I discuss a new approach which decomposes inequality into the contributions of population groups by income sources. I … element indicating the marginal change in the inequality contribution of a group (as measured by the recentered influence … function) when an income source is added and with all contributions adding up to overall inequality. The approach can be used …

In this paper, I quantify the contribution of a subpopulation to inequality. This is defined as the sum of the … contributions of its members, with these contributions computed as the impact on inequality of a small increase in the population … mass at each point of the distribution (using the Recentered Influence Function).
