Description
Summary:The objective of this research is to study the contribution of differentiation by years of education and gender in determining inequality in personal income distribution. The perspective adopted is based, on the one hand, on the calculation of the economic distance, or relative degree of affluence, that occurs between groups of individuals categorized by gender and by the average years of schooling attained; and, on the other hand, on the analysis of the recent evolution of this distance computed for the population of Argentina differentiated by these attributes, considering, in particular, the role played by the expansion in access to Higher Education observed during the last few years.
