, Rationale and Introduction:
Now more than ever, income is held to an extremely high regard, with individuals’ lives being
hugely impacted mainly by the number displayed in their banking account at the end of each
week, month or year. This, naturally, leads to a huge divide as well as massive inequality
amongst people in their given country, which lead me to wonder and research a lot about how
income inequality in different nations affects its people. So, in order to understand it we must
have a measurement of income inequality and inevitably, I landed on the Gini coefficient which
greatly fascinated me thanks to how easily it gives a reading of a country’s income inequality
with just a simple number which tells a massive story about said country.
This helped feed my hunger for more knowledge in the impressive field of economics and
statistics which I always found a fascination in due to their importance in the world we live in
today. Income inequality is an ever growing, sadly inevitable issue which I found an interest in
and would love to explore and learn more about it to possibly contribute one day to help fix it;
and so, I will dive into the economies of Brazil, France and Portugal with the use of the Gini
coefficient as well as the Lorenz curve.
Aim:
For this investigation, I will attempt to understand which of the 3 afore mentioned economies
does the best job at maintaining a small gap in their respective income inequalities by deriving
information from the Lorenz curve and Gini coefficient. This will help us understand which
country would be easier to live in, and suggest a model economy for other countries to possibly
