Income Distribution Dynamics of Economic Systems
Author: Marcelo Byrro Ribeiro
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1108850707
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 335
Book Description
Econophysics has been used to study a range of economic and financial systems. This book uses the econophysical perspective to focus on the income distributive dynamics of economic systems. It focuses on the empirical characterization and dynamics of income distribution and its related quantities from the epistemological and practical perspectives of contemporary physics. Several income distribution functions are presented which fit income data and results obtained by statistical physicists on the income distribution problem. The book discusses two separate research traditions: the statistical physics approach, and the approach based on non-linear trade cycle models of macroeconomic dynamics. Several models of distributive dynamics based on the latter approach are presented, connecting the studies by physicists on distributive dynamics with the recent literature by economists on income inequality. As econophysics is such an interdisciplinary field, this book will be of interest to physicists, economists, statisticians and applied mathematicians.

The Panel Study of Income Dynamics
Author: Martha S. Hill
Publisher: SAGE Publications, Incorporated
ISBN:
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 114
Book Description
Income, employment, family composition, health and retirement - are all topics on which the Panel Study of Income Dynamics (PSID) has annually gathered information from more than 4,800 US households. Hill sets out to make this wealth of data more accessible to researchers by reviewing key analysis issues and identifying key variables for the user. Several detailed analysis examples show how to make use of the PSID to estimate earnings regressions, changes in women's income following divorce and the correlation between parents' income and a child's adult income, as well as to create a longitudinal poverty measure.

The Dynamics of Inequality and Poverty
Author: John Creedy
Publisher: Edward Elgar Publishing
ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 336
Book Description
This study utilises empirical evidence to model and measure aggregate poverty and income dynamics in order to design appropriate policies to alleviate poverty. It introduces the Lorenz curve and the Gini and Atkinson measures as techniques for assessing these conditions.

The Microeconomics of Income Distribution Dynamics in East Asia and Latin America
Author: François Bourguignon
Publisher: World Bank Publications
ISBN: 9780821358610
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 438
Book Description
This book is about how the distribution of income changes during the process of income development. Understanding development and the process of poverty reduction requires understanding not only how total income grows but also how its distribution behaves over time. The authors propose a decomposition of differences in entire distributions of household incomes, shedding new light on the powerful, and often conflicting, forces that underpin the changes in poverty and inequality that accompany the process of economic development. This approach is applied to three East Asian countries -- Indonesia, Malaysia, and China -- and to four in Latin America -- Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, and Mexico.
