Актуальность такого подхода к проблеме сокращения неравенства повышается в период экономической нестабильности. Целью исследования было выяснение того, какими ресурсными возможностями обладает население для того, чтобы сохранить уровень благосостояния в этот период.Предпринятый анализ проводился в двух измерениях – на уровне индивидов и на уровне домохозяйств, чему способствовала соответствующая организация массового выборочного опроса, репрезентативно представляющего население России в целом.Подробно рассмотрены модели социально-экономического поведения индивидов и домохозяйств, направленные на повышение или удержание достигнутого уровня благосостояния.English Abstract: Reduction of the excessive socio-economic inequality of various layers of the Russian population is possible not only through the implementation of social policy compensatory functions but also due to its stimulating functions – population resource capabilities enhancement. The relevance of such approach to the problem of inequality reduction increases in periods of economic instability. The purpose of the research was to find out what resource capabilities the population obtained to maintain the level of welfare in this period.The analysis was conducted in two dimensions – at the level of individuals and at the level of households that was contributed by specially arranged sample survey representing whole Russian population.The models of socio-economic behavior of individuals and households directed at increasing or retaining the gained level of welfare are reviewed in details.","PeriodicalId":282303,"journal":{"name":"ERN: Equity","volume":"207 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-03-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121026421","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This is creating some serious concerns among policymakers, as higher levels of income inequality can lead to various social ills. However, little is known about the role of historical factors in explaining the current level of inequality. I use the model of Durlauf (1996) as reference to create an econometric model to estimate this impact. I use current and historical data of US states to study the effect of different socio-economic factors on inequality. Using two measures of income inequality, one that places equal weight on all individuals, and one that places a higher weight on the richer group, I find that illiteracy rate in 1920 and bank deposits in 1920 have a strong positive influence on current level of inequality. Higher levels of farmland inequality in 1920 also increase current incomes of the richer segment among the rich. Higher illiteracy indicates a lower level of human capital, and that can affect income distribution. Higher levels of bank deposits and farmland inequality in the past indicate a higher inequality of wealth in the past. Through the intergenerational transmission of income and wealth, income distribution can be more skewed in the future, leading to higher levels of inequality.","PeriodicalId":282303,"journal":{"name":"ERN: Equity","volume":"119 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122095528","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We find far less inequality in spending power than in wealth or labor earnings due to the fiscal system’s high degree of progressivity. But U.S. fiscal redistribution generally comes at a price of very high work disincentives for households regardless of age and resource class. There is, however, very substantial dispersion in marginal net tax rates, which seems hard to reconcile with standard norms of optimal taxation. We also find that current income is a very poor proxy for remaining lifetime resources and that current-year net tax rates can provide a highly distorted picture of true fiscal progressivity and work disincentives.","PeriodicalId":282303,"journal":{"name":"ERN: Equity","volume":"89 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121251265","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
