Income Inequality in V4+ Countries at NUTS 2 Level
Original language description
Income inequality could be also a social problem because it causes poverty, gener-ally affects society negatively and it could create a space for social and economic discrimination. Nowadays it is not a problem to find data about it in a form of Gini coefficient, which is one of the best known indicators of measuring income inequali-ty, on national level, but relevant data at regional level doesn´t exist. The NUTS classification is a hierarchical system for dividing up the economic territory of the European Union among others for the purpose of socio-economic analyses of the regions. Regions eligible for support from cohesion policy have been defined at NUTS 2 level. The aim of this paper is to measure and compare income inequality in V4+ countries at NUTS 2 level in a period of 2005 - 2013. Because of regional income distribution data unavailability income inequality will be analysed through the standard deviation and coefficient of variation. The analysis of disposable in-comes at NUTS2 level in selected countries will be made on empirical data from the regional Statistics on disposable income of households published by Eurostat.
