“…12 In contrast, Brazil increased its real minimum wage over the same period in 108.7% in real terms, while the percentage of occupied people that received a wage under the minimum wage in 2014 was 21.3% (ECLAC, 2017a). 13 In the context of falling unemployment and relatively strong economic growth, the increase in the minimum wage in Brazil led to inequality reduction among wage earners (Maurizio, 2014).…”

“…En este sentido, algunos pocos estudios empíricos para Argentina durante el periodo en cuestión, encuentran relaciones causales positivas, aunque modestas, entre el incremento del salario mínimo real y la mejora distributiva. Maurizio (2014a), encuentra que la recuperación del valor real del salario mínimo estaría asociada a una reducción del orden del 37% en la varianza del logaritmo de los salarios de los asalariados. Además, señala que un incremento del 10% en la relación del salario mínimo y la mediana, comprime la brecha entre el percentil 10 y la mediana en alrededor de 3.2%.…”

Este artículo propone un análisis de la dinámica de la desigualdad en la Argentina entre los años 2003 y 2015. Se analizan tres aspectos asociados a la dinámica de la distribución personal del ingreso: las transferencias de ingreso, las políticas de jubilaciones y pensiones y el mercado de trabajo en relación con el funcionamiento de lasinstituciones laborales (sindicatos, negociación colectiva, salario mínimo y formalización laboral). El objetivo es aportar a la comprensión de los alcances y limitaciones de las políticas kirchneristas en cuanto a la desigualdad.

Seventy-five Years of Measuring Income Inequality in Latin America

Drawing on a comprehensive compilation of quantile shares and inequality measures for 34 countries, including over 5,600 estimated Gini coefficient, we review the measurement of income inequality in Latin America and the Caribbean over the last seven decades. Although the evidence from the first quarter century roughly until the 1970s is too fragmentary and difficult to compare, clearer patterns emerge for last fifty years. The central feature of these patterns is a broad inverted U curve, with inequality rising in most countries prior to the 1990s, and falling during the early 21st Century, at least until the mid-2010s, when trends appear to diverge across countries. This broad pattern is modified by country specificities, with considerable variation in timing and magnitude. Whereas this broad picture emerges for income inequality dynamics, there is much more uncertainty about the exact levels of inequality in the region. The uncertainty arises from the disparity in estimates for the same country/year combinations, depending on whether they come from household surveys exclusively; from some combination of surveys and administrative tax data; and on whether they attempt to scale income aggregates to achieve consistency with National Accounts estimates. Since no single method is fully convincing at present, we are left with (often wide) ranges, or bands, of inequality as our best summaries of inequality levels. Reassuringly, however, the dynamic patterns are generally robust across the bands.
