Andrea Aguirre, GATE Lyon Saint-Etienne, Jean Monnet University présentera un séminaire intitulé : Income inequality, Victimization, Individual characteristics.
Thème de recherche / Main topics : Inequality and Victimization : an individual level analysis in Ecuador.
Résumé / abstract : Using data of the Victimization Survey of Ecuador, this paper estimates the impact of inequality on different types of victimization by controlling for individual and geographic characteristics. Main findings reveal that income inequality, at the cantonal level, increases both property and violent victimization. Although, this effect strongly weakens and loses significance when controlling for individual and geographic characteristics.
