abstract = {Majority coalitions are formed such that they can redistribute incomes to their favour. When inequality is to be increased in the interest of some, coalition partners must be found by compensation schemes. Compensation minimization is shown to lead to coalition partners being either a connected or a disconnected income group. When inequality reaches certain levels, disconnection becomes unavoidable.

A slightly revised version of the paper will appear in the International Journal of Computational Economics and Econometrics.},

title = {The use of mean values vs. medians in inequality analysis},
author = {T. Kämpke},
year = {2008},
date = {2008-10-10},
abstract = {Poverty lines that are proportional to either the mean value or the median of income distributions are compared by statistical properties and in the light of poverty axioms. Poverty lines are extended from all incomes such that any particular income is considered as smallest of all larger incomes. This induces classes of income distributions with the distributions for the median being much more unequal than for the mean value.},

author = {T. Kämpke and M. Stark},
year = {2001},
date = {2001-07-01},
abstract = {The equality parameter as a highly aggregated index of an income distribution is complemented by the finer measure of an equality function. Lorenz curves with linear equality functions are developed and fitted to empirical data by squared error regression. The transition from equality parameters to equality functions significantly reduces regression errors. Relative poverty lines are subsequently introduced, computed approximately and their induced rankings of nations are investigated.},
