To model the comparisons, we compose … ratio: the network's aggregate level of relative deprivation divided by the aggregate level of the relative deprivation of a … hypothetical network in which one member of the network receives all the income, and it is with this member that the other members …

Polarization in Networks : Identification-alienation Framework
Huremovic, Kenan - 2020
We introduce a model of polarization in networks as a unifying setting for the measurement of polarization that covers a wide range of applications. We consider a substantially general setup for this purpose: node- and edge-weighted, undirected, and connected networks. We generalize the...

We describe the characteristics of such network … using various network indexes and obtain the following results: first, China's production network on industry level is … influence of sectoral shocks on macro fluctuations increasingly important. Second, China's production network on firm level has …

The BIP Trilogy (bipolarization, inequality and polarization) : one saga but three different stories
Deutsch, Joseph; Fusco, Alessio; Silber, Jacques - 2013
Inequality, bi-polarization and polarization are related but distinct concepts aiming at analysing the income distribution. This paper first recalls the main differences between these three notions of inequality, bipolarization and polarization and then suggests using the so-called Shapley...

The BIP trilogy (bipolarization, inequality and polarization) : one saga but three different stories
Deutsch, Joseph; Fusco, Alessio; Silber, Jacques - 2012
Inequality, bi-polarization and polarization are related but distinct concepts aiming at analysing the income distribution. This paper first recalls the main differences between these three notions of inequality, bipolarization and polarization. It then shows that a close look at the impact of...

Inequality Comparisons with Ordinal Data
Jenkins, Stephen P. - 2019
Non-intersection of appropriately-defined Generalized Lorenz (GL) curves is equivalent to a unanimous ranking of distributions of ordinal data by all Cowell and Flachaire (Economica 2017) indices of inequality and by a new index based on GL curve areas. Comparisons of life satisfaction...

Measuring welfare, inequality and poverty with ordinal variables
Silber, Jacques; Yalonetzky, Gastón - 2021
The key challenge in making distributional comparisons with ordinal data is the lack of commensurability of the distances between the ordered categories. This chapter provides a critical review of the most recent theoretical developments addressing this challenge and providing methods for...
