Equivalence Scales, Horizontal Equity and Horizontal Inequity
2004In this paper, we describe ways to frame the “equal treatment of equals” command of classical HE using equivalence scales. These scales may be constant or income-dependent. Two equal treatment commands, postulating equal average tax rates and equal taxes among equals respectively, can be interpreted as variants upon a third, very widely used criterion,

Redistribution, Horizontal Inequity, and Reranking
Public Finance Review, 2008The decomposition of the Gini-based index of redistributive effect of an income tax into vertical, horizontal, and reranking contributions according to the model of Aronson, Johnson, and Lambert (AJL) is revisited. When close equals groups are used, rather than the exact equals groups on which the model is predicated, problems arise. A new measurement

A crucial problem arising when measuring its extent is: How should differential treatment which has some equity justification be distinguished from that which does not? The literature to date has suggested that ‘genuine’ equals can be identified, and thence the problem solved, by ...
