In this work we provide a decomposition by sources of the inequality index ζ defined by Zenga (1984). The contributions of the sources are obtained with the method proposed in Zenga et al. (2012) and Zenga (2013), that allows to compare different inequality measures. This method is based on the decomposition of the inequality curves. To apply this decomposition to the index ζ and its inequality curve, we adapt the method to the cograduation table. Moreover, we consider the case of linear transformation of the sources and analyse the corresponding results

Abstract
In this work we provide a decomposition by sources of the inequality index ζ defined by Zenga (1984). The contributions of the sources are obtained with the method proposed in Zenga et al. (2012) and Zenga (2013), that allows to compare different inequality measures. This method is based on the decomposition of the inequality curves. To apply this decomposition to the index ζ and its inequality curve, we adapt the method to the cograduation table. Moreover, we consider the case of linear transformation of the sources and analyse the corresponding resultsFile | Dimensione | Formato | |
