The Discovery of the Gini Coefficient
History of Political Economy, 2021This article traces the development of the methods of representing the degree of income inequality that were developed in the early twentieth century by Max Otto Lorenz and Corrado Gini. It suggests that Gini’s efforts to perfect the Lorenz curve may well have facilitated his discovery of what came to be known as the Gini coefficient and argues that ...

THE GINI COEFFICIENT'S APPLICATION TO GENERAL COMPLEX NETWORKS [PDF]
Advances in Complex Systems, 2005 The Gini coefficient, which was originally used in microeconomics to describe income inequality, is introduced into the research of general complex networks as a metric on the heterogeneity of network structure. Some parameters such as degree exponent and degree-rank exponent were already defined in the case of scale-free networks also as a metric on ...

Gini coefficients, which measure gross inequalities rather than their unfair components, are often used as proxy measures of absolute or relative distributive injustice in Western societies. This presupposes that the fair inequalities in these societies are small and stable enough to be ignored.

On the Interpretation and Disaggregation of Gini Coefficients
The Economic Journal, 1976Problems of inequality related to the disaggregation of Gini coefficients are examined. Measures of inequality can be decomposed so that in a grouped population, total inequality depends on inequality within and between groups. No such decomposition is available for the Gini coefficient, yet its direct relationship to the Lorenz curve has resulted in ...

The Gini Index as a Coefficient of Variation
The coefficient of variation, which measures the variability of a distribution from its mean, is not uniquely defined in the multidimensional case, and so is the multidimensional Gini index, which measures the inequality of a distribution in terms of the mean differences among its observations.Auricchio, Gennaro +2 more

Social welfare and the gini coefficient revisited
Mathematical Social Sciences, 1985The question of conflict between the rankings of income distributions with the same mean by the Gini coefficient and by individualistic social welfare functions is re-examined. The negative result of \textit{D. Newbery} [J. Econ. Theory 2, 264-266 (1970)] is extended.
