Abstract

La desigualdad en Bolivia es medida normalmente a través del ingreso pero la construcción de un índice socio-económico (ISE) utilizando los cuatro censos disponibles 1976, 1992, 2001 y 2012 logra analizar la desigualdad a largo plazo en un enfoque multidimensional. La aplicación de un enfoque de descomposición inter-temporal permite identificar la relevancia de variables como etnia y género (del Jefe de hogar) tanto en la estructura como en la composición del cambio del ISE en el tiempo a nivel de cuantiles.
