本文的目的是提出。一种不等式分解方法,即两阶段嵌套泰尔分解方法,它是普通一阶段泰尔分解方法的扩展。该方法类似于方差分析(ANOVA)中的两阶段嵌套设计。它考虑了一个国家的三级等级结构:地区-省-区,并将总体地区不平等(根据地区平均收入的泰尔指数衡量)分解为三个组成部分:地区间、省际和省内不平等组成部分。省内部分是每个省份内收入不平等的加权平均,而省际部分是每个地区内省际收入不平等的加权平均。该方法以地区为基本区域单位而不是省来衡量区域收入不平等,因此可以在一个连贯的框架内分析省内不平等以及省间和区域间不平等对总体区域收入不平等的贡献。本文将两阶段嵌套泰尔分解方法应用于中国和印度尼西亚的地区级收入和人口数据,探讨了中国和印度尼西亚地区收入不平等的影响因素。
The objective of this paper is to present. an inequality decomposition method, the two-stage nested Theil decomposition method, which is an extension of the ordinary one-stage Theil decomposition method.. The method is analogous to a two-stage nested design in the analysis of variance (ANOVA). It considers the three-level hierarchical structure of a country: region-province-district, and decomposes overall regional inequality, as measured by Theil indices based on district-level mean incomes, into three components: the between-region, between-province, and within-province inequality components. The within-province component is a weighted-average of within-province income inequalities for each province, while the between-province component is a weighted-average of between-province income inequalities within each region. The method uses a district as the underlying regional unit to measure regional income inequality, rather than a province, and thus can analyze the contribution of within-province inequalities as well as between province and between-region inequalities to the overall regional income inequality in a coherent framework. This paper applies the two-stage nested Theil decomposition method to district-level income and population data in China and Indonesia and explores factors determining regional income inequality in China and Indonesia.
