摘要:
We reconsider some of the basic assumptions of the literature on inequality analysis. Students' views on the meaning of inequality comparisons were elicited by means of a questionnaire involving both numerical and verbal questions. The responses suggest that two important axioms the principle of transfers and decomposability are not universally accepted.
