This book honors the memory of Tony Atkinson, who made significant
contributions to the rigorous study of income inequality, poverty,
and redistribution. These essays presented, covering a span of over
30 years of research and scholarship, have been at the forefront of
distributional analysis, and many of them are of prime importance
for contemporary developments in the real-valued measurement of
poverty and inequality, with particular reference to the concepts
of fuzzy poverty assessment, vulnerability,
heterogeneity/multidimensionality, unit consistency, sub-group
decomposability, and dominance criteria. While all of these
articles have been previously published-singly or with
co-authorship-in a number of professional journals or distinguished
edited volumes, this book is greatly enriched by a substantial
introductions by the authors, which place the contributions in
context, highlights their inter-connectedness, and relates them to
the work of Tony Atkinson and other scholars. This book is of
intrinsic value to welfare analysts, as well as being a tribute to
a very great scholar by a fellow economist.
