Desigualdades de renda no Brasil entre 2005-2015: comparação entre regiões, estados e municípios brasileiros

Abstract

The focus of this work is to show the reality of income inequality between municipalities and their respective regions and states in 2005 and 2015. To observe the degree of symmetry / asymmetry of the distribution of income, the study used the GDP data per capita collected by the National Sample by Household Survey (PNAD) in the period between 2005 and 2015, the Census for the period 2005 and 2015. Both surveys conducted by the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE). In 2005 and 2010 the municipalities were ranked in ascending order. The ranked municipalities were separated in ten groups. This study picked the ten per cent in the top and the ten per cent in the bottom. In these groups were estimated Index of symmetry (IS) to measure inequalities among each of these groups in 2005 and 2015. The results showed that in the ten percent richest the level of asymmetry was greater than in those with the lowest GDP per capita. The study also showed that in both cases there was a reduction of the asymmetry between the years 2005 and 2015. The study shows disparities in appropriation of GDP between the Southeast and South and Northeast and North. And these disparities remained in the period 2005-2015
