Socioeconomic status, sexual behavior, and differential AIDS mortality: evidence from Cote d'Ivoire
No full textLack of knowledge about differential AIDS mortality seriously hampers the study of the economic impact of AIDS in developing countries. We derive HIV infection risk differentials by age, education, and other microeconomic characteristics using the Ivorian Demographic and Health Survey. Our model is based on econometrically estimated equations using commonly available variables, therefore it can be used whenever such a survey is available but there is no representative information about HIV infection by socioeconomic group. For instance, we found that educated people have a higher risk of HIV infection, because they are more likely to have several sexual partners. However, this effect is partly offset by a higher probability of condom use relative to less educated people. The identification of the socioeconomic characteristics of low and high risk groups seems indispensable to set up adequate AIDS prevention and therapy policies in developing countries
THE MEASUREMENT OF INCOME DISTRIBUTION DYNAMICS WHEN DEMOGRAPHICS ARE CORRELATED WITH INCOME
No full textWe show how to account for differentials in demographic variables, in particular mortality, when performing welfare comparisons over time. The idea is to apply various ways of "correcting" estimated income distribution measures for "sample selection" due to differential mortality. We distinguish the direct effect of mortality, i.e. individuals who die leave the population and no longer contribute to monetary welfare, from the indirect effect, i.e. the impact on survivors in the deceased's household who may experience a decrease or increase in monetary welfare. In the case of Indonesia, we show that the direct and indirect effects of mortality on income distribution have opposite signs, but are roughly the same in magnitude. Moreover, the effects of other demographic changes dominate the effects of mortality, whether direct or indirect. However, in the post-crisis period these demographic changes also explain a substantial part of the overall change in the distribution of income.

Income Inequality under Colonial Rule: evidence from French Algeria, Cameroon, Tunisia, and Vietnam and comparisons with the British Empire 1920-1960
Full text linkIn this article we assess income inequality across French and British colonial empires between 1920 and 1960. For the first time, income tax tabulations are exploited to assess the case studies of French Algeria, Tunisia, Cameroon, and Vietnam, which we compare to British colonies and dominions. As measured by top income shares, inequality was high in colonies. It fell after WWII, but stabilized at much higher levels than in mainland France or the United Kingdom in the 1950s. European settlers or expatriates comprised the bulk of top income earners, and only a minority of autochthons could compete in terms of income, particularly in Africa. Top income shares were no higher in settlement colonies, not only because those territories were wealthier but also because the average European settler was less rich than the average European expatriate. Inequality between Europeans in colonies was similar to (or even below) that of the metropoles. In settlement colonies, the post-WWII fall in income inequality can be explained by a fall in inequality between Europeans, mirroring that of the metropoles, and does not imply that the European/autochthon income gap was reduced.Fil: Gonzalez Alvaredo, Facundo.

L'évolution de la structure des prix et les inégalités de niveau de vie en France de 1974 à 1995
No full textPrice Structure Trends and Standard-of-Living Inequalities in France from 1974 to 1995 by Marceline Bodier and Denis Cogneau
French consumer prices fluctuated sharply from 1974 to 1995. However, these fluctuations had only a modest effect on the redistribution of household standards of living compared with income redistribution. Although minor, the redistributive effect of prices can be deemed positive since 1984 and more especially from 1984 to 1989 when income inequalities and poverty rose sharply. A number of studies have forecast that changes in the VAT rate structure due to European harmonisation would have a substantial antidistributive effect. The effect seems to be smaller than expected and has been offset by other prodistributive relative price changes. Lastly, the recent change in relative prices has also favoured the older age brackets.International Trade and Market Structures: An Empirical TestL'évolution de la structure des prix et les inégalités de niveau de vie en france de 1974 à 1995
par Marceline Bodier et Denis Cogneau
Entre 1 974 et 1 995 , l' économie française a connu de forts mouvements dans les prix relatifs des biens de consommation. Pourtant ces mouvements n'ont eu qu'un impact modeste sur la redistribution du niveau de vie entre les ménages, en comparaison de la redistribution des revenus. Quoique faible, cet impact redistributif des prix relatifs peut néanmoins être jugé positif depuis 1984, surtout entre 1984 et 1989, période pendant laquelle les inégalités de revenu et la pauvreté ont beaucoup augmenté. Des études avaient montré que les changements dans la structure des taux de TVA provoqués par l'harmonisation européenne auraient un impact anti-distributif important. Celui-ci semble moindre que prévu, et il a été compensé par d'autres évolutions de prix relatifs pro-distributives. Enfin l'évolution récente des prix relatifs a également favorisé les classes d'âge les plus anciennes.Bodier Marceline, Cogneau Denis.
