This paper analyses the effects of overlapping subgroups on inequality decompositions. Within the framework of the Gini inequality index is performed a simulation study which allows to compare and evaluate alternative decompositions with respect to different degrees and situations of overlapping.

Abstract
This paper analyses the effects of overlapping subgroups on inequality decompositions. Within the framework of the Gini inequality index is performed a simulation study which allows to compare and evaluate alternative decompositions with respect to different degrees and situations of overlapping.File in questo prodotto:
