A note on the decomposition of the coefficient of variation squared: comparing entropy and Dagum's methods [PDF]
The aim of this paper is to propose a new decomposition of the coefficient of variation squared. The approach is similar to the Dagum's method when decomposing the Gini index.

Age, SES, and Health: A Population Level Analysis of Health Inequalities over the Life Course [PDF]
This paper tests two competing hypotheses on the relationship between age, SES, and health inequality at the cohort/population level. The accumulation hypothesis predicts that levels of SES- based health inequality and consequently overall health ...

Measuring and explaining economic inequality: An extension of the Gini coefficient. [PDF]
This paper proposes a new class of inequality indices based on the Gini’s coefficient. The properties of the indices are studied and in particular they are found to be regular, relative and satisfy the Pigou-Dalton transfer principle.

Using Personal Car Register for Measuring Economic Inequality in Countries with a Large Share of Shadow Economy: Evidence for Latvia [PDF]
We suggest to use information from the state register of personal cars as an alternative indicator of economic inequality in countries with a large share of shadow economy. We illustrate our approach using the Latvian pool of personal cars.
