Following a methodology proposed by Jantzen and Volpert (2012), we use IRS Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) data for the United States (1921-2012) to estimate two Gini-like indices representing inequality at the bottom and the top of the income distribution. We also calculate the overall Gini index...

In our paper, "A Tale of Two Ginis" (Schneider and Tavani, 2016), we presented estimates for two indices of inequality for inequality at the top and the bottom of income distribution based on Jantzen and Volpert (2012). The estimates of the Gini for the bottom of the distribution were based on a...

We examine the relationship between changes in a country's public sector fiscal position and inequality at the top and bottom of the income distribution during the age of austerity (2006-13). We use a parametric Lorenz curve model and Gini-like indices of inequality as our measures to assess...
