Abstract
AHAMDANECH ZARCO, Ismael and SOTELSEK SALEM, Daniel. Distribución del ingreso, bienestar económico y pobreza en las regiones españolas. El trimestre econ [online]. 2012, vol.79, n.315, pp.665-692. ISSN 2448-718X.
This paper introduces inference based stochastic dominance tools to decompose the difference between economic welfare and poverty among countries or regions into inequality effect and income effect. To this aim, the variances and covariances matrix of the generalized Lorenz curve used in that decomposition are developed. The methodology is applied to Spain and its regions for the period 2003-2007. The conclusion is that in some regions, especially Andalucía and Madrid, the income distribution is clearly anti-poor.
Keywords : crecimiento propobre; pobreza; dominancia estocástica.
