“…This has mostly involved using additive and Generalized entropy indices -see, for instance, Bourguignon (1979), Cowell (1980), Foster and Shneyerov (1999), Mookherjee and Shorrocks (1982), Shorrocks (1980), Shorrocks (1984), Schwarze (1996) and Zandvakili (1999). Decompositions of the Gini and rank-dependent inequality indices are investigated in Dagum (1997), Deutsch and Silber (1999a), Deutsch and Silber (1999b), Milanovic and Yitzhaki (2002), Sastry and Kelkar (1994), Tsui (1998) and Yitzhaki and Lerman (1991). A money-metric cost-of-inequality approach to decomposing inequality across subpopulations is derived in Blackorby, Donaldson, and Auersperg (1981), Duclos and Lambert (2000) and Ebert (1999).…”
