Segregation, informativeness and Lorenz dominance
It is possible to partially order cities according to the informativeness of neighborhoods about their ethnic groups. It is also possible to partially order cities with two ethnic groups according to the Lorenz criterion. We show that a segregation order satisfies four well-established segregation principles if and only if it is consistent with the informativeness criterion. We then use this re...
متن کاملTesting Generalized Lorenz Dominance
It is well known that the property of generalized Lorenz dominance (GLD) between two distributions is a scaled Lorenz dominance, where the scale factor is the ratio of the two finite positive means. It is convenient to test the GLD property between any pair of distributions because, the property is equivalent to the so-called second order stochastic dominance (SSD), whose statistical tests may ...
متن کاملA multidimensional Lorenz dominance relation
This paper considers the problem of constructing a multidimensional Lorenz dominance relation (MLDR) satisfying normatively acceptable conditions. One of the conditions, Comonotonizing Majorization (CM), is a weaker form of the condition of Correlation Increasing Majorizaton considered in the literature on multidimensional inequality indices. A condition, called Prioritization of Attributes und...
متن کاملLorenz Dominance and Non-welfaristic Redistribution
Given the decision to implement a non-welfaristic redistribution scheme, we analyze which mechanisms are favored by traditional Lorenz dominance and poverty dominance adherents. We show that for large classes of income functions Lorenz dominance results can be found in the comparison of two egalitarian equivalent mechanisms. Comparisons of different conditionally egalitarian mechanisms only yie...
