Income inequality in times of high inflation in Europe, Aprea, Massimo ; Raitano, Michele; Structural change and economic dynamics, 2025-06, Vol.73, p.449-459.
In inequality studies economic wellbeing is usually measured in terms of nominal incomes, which are compared over time by using a uniform price index. This prevents from adequately taking account of the effects of inflation on the distribution of living standards. To overcome these limits, we propose to consider income net of the spending for basic goods as the proxy of economic wellbeing.
