Idiossincratic Risk of Per Capita Labor Income

The risk of crossing the median in an upward direction has never been so high: 27% of the people who were below the median crossed it in 2012/2013 – inversion of the risks of falling/rising 10 years later

Despite having lower chances of rising, the less educated, since 2002/2003, increased the controled chances (Dif in Dif) compared to the more educated. The same happens in favour of the black people and in favor of the residents in the periphery.

Equality

Looking at the distribution among individuals and social groups of income flows, stocks of assets and rights.

Sustainability (Assets)

Ability to maintain the standards of living

  • achieved. Stocks of human,

environmental, physical , cultural and social assets.

Prosperity (Growth)

Growth in mean income and consumption (not only GDP/National Accounts but also look to Household Surveys data and PIT).

Sensibility (Perceptions)

The last dimension is subjective, based on people’s percepction about the country, the public services and life quality.

Returning to Questions about the Quality of Development (Ends Approach)

  • Inclusive? Falling Inequality;
  • How much has grown? household perspective better than GDP;
  • Perceived by the people? Subjective Measures of Well-Being rising;
  • Sustainable? Rising Stocks of Education, Labor, HDI, Housing;

Poor Brazilians in household surveys have been improving more than the mean Brazil of National Accounts Brazil has been since the dawn of the new millenium the Country of the Past (not the contry of the future) Structural Change in the Basis of Assets Distribution = Deep Transformation
