Abstract

Este trabajo utiliza los datos por hogares de la Encuesta de Calidad de Vida 2003 para analizar la situación de pobreza, distribución de ingreso y capital social en 19 localidades de Bogotá. El trabajo presentá evidencia empírica de la hipótesis de Juan Luis Londoño según la cual la distribución de activos humanos es crítica para entender la desigualdad de ingresos. En efecto, el trabajo encuentra que el principal problema de Bogotá está relacionado con capital humano, y no con acceso a servicios públicos. Además, existe una gran dispersión del capital humano entre localidades y al interior de ellas. Finalmente, el trabajo encuentra una relación cóncava entre distribución de ingresos y dos formas de capital humano (educación y salud) y una relación convexa entre distribución y propiedad de vivienda.
