Transition and Income Distribution Theory, Evidence and Initial Interpretation

Author

Listed:
  • Cornia, Giovanni Andrea

Abstract

Contrary to a widespread belief, prior to the transition, income distribution in the former centrally planned economies of Europe varied substantially across countries and over time. Assessment of the degree of income inequality in these nations therefore largely depended on the choice of a specific year and country.
