Measuring inequality of well-being with a correlation-sensitive multidimensional Gini index

Decancq, Koen; Lugo, María Ana - Society for the Study of Economic Inequality - ECINEQ - 2009

We propose to measure inequality of well-being with a multidimensional generalization of the Gini coefficient. We derive two inequality indices from their underlying social evaluation functions. These functions are conceived as a double aggregation functions: one across the dimensions of...
