Reranking and Pro-Poor Growth: Decompositions for China and Vietnam
研究了在收入分布变化中重新排序如何影响对底层群体收入增长的判断,并通过对中国和越南的分解分析发现,经济增长对初始贫困家庭的益处比洛伦兹曲线和贫困增长曲线所显示的要大。
Abstract Reranking in the move from one income distribution to another makes it impossible to infer from changes in Lorenz and generalised Lorenz curves how income growth among those toward the bottom of the initial income distribution compares to that among those toward the top, and whether there has been income growth among those who were initially poor. Decompositions allowing for reranking indicate that economic growth in China and Vietnam has been better for households who were initially poor than changes in the Lorenz and generalised Lorenz curve and poverty growth curve would suggest.
