Abstract

Brazil's inequalities in welfare and poverty across and within regions can be accounted for by differences in household attributes and returns to those attributes. This paper uses Oaxaca-Blinder decompositions at the mean as well as at different quantiles of welfare distributions on regionally representative household survey data (2002-03 Household Budget Survey). The analysis finds that household attributes account for most of the welfare differences between urban and rural areas within regions. However, comparing the lagging Northeast region with the leading Southeast region, differences in returns to attributes account for a large part of the welfare disparities, in particular in metropolitan areas, supporting the presence of agglomeration effects in booming areas.

巴西地区间和地区内福利差距的来源:来自2002-03年家庭预算调查的证据
巴西地区之间和地区内部的福利和贫困不平等可以用家庭属性和这些属性的回报差异来解释。本文对具有区域代表性的家庭调查数据(2002-03年家庭预算调查)进行了福利分布均值和不同分位数的瓦哈卡-布林德分解。分析发现,区域内城乡福利差异的主要原因是家庭属性。然而,将落后的东北地区与领先的东南地区进行比较,属性回报的差异在很大程度上解释了福利差距,特别是在大都市地区,支持了繁荣地区存在集聚效应。
