AYVAR-CAMPOS, Francisco Javier; NAVARRO-CHAVEZ, José César Lenin  y  GIMENEZ-GARCIA, Víctor M.. The Efficiency of the Income Dimension of the HDI in Mexico. Ens. Rev. econ. [online]. 2017, vol.36, n.2, pp.95-121. ISSN 2448-8402.

This paper studies the efficiently use of resources to generate income and reduce inequality, considering non-controllable variables in the 32 states of Mexico during the 1990-2010 period. To define efficiency, we use the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA), considering as a bad output the poverty of capacities and as a uncontrollable variable the average level of schooling of the population aged 15 or older. The results shows that only Baja California Sur, Campeche and the Federal District were efficient in generating income and reducing inequality.
