摘要

摘要标点均衡理论认为，政策制定通常以长期稳定为特征，而短期基本政策变化会打断长期稳定。文献集中在峰度和L-峰度的测量上，以评估这些变化模式。在这封信中，我们批判性地讨论了这些度量，并提出基尼系数是（1）可比较的，但（2）更直观，（3）更精确的“间断”变化模式的度量。

Why We Should Use the Gini Coefficient to Assess Punctuated Equilibrium Theory

Abstract Punctuated Equilibrium Theory posits that policy-making is generally characterized by long periods of stability that are interrupted by short periods of fundamental policy change. The literature converged on the measure of kurtosis and L-kurtosis to assess these change patterns. In this letter, we critically discuss these measures and propose the Gini coefficient as a (1) comparable, but (2) more intuitive, and (3) more precise measure of “punctuated” change patterns.
