Abstract
Majoritatea cercetarilor științifice dedicate inegalitații veniturilor populației utilizeaza setul standard de indicatori. De regula, aceștia fiind coeficientul Gini și coeficientul quintilic / decilic al inegalitații. Totodata, alți indicatori adesea nu sunt luați in considerare, ceea ce restrange semnificativ posibilitatea unei evaluari obiective a inegalitații și elaborarea masurilor care vizeaza reducerea nivelului de inegalitate a veniturilor populației. Scopul cercetarii consta in examinarea indicatorilor utilizați in practica mondiala in masurarea inegalitații, de a analiza metodologia de calcul al acestora și de a evalua nivelul negalitații veniturilor populației Republicii Moldova. Metode de cercetare: comparației, analogiilor, monografica, statistica, de analiza și sinteza. Rezultatele cercetarii. A fost efectuata analiza comparativa a principalilor indicatori ai inegalitații, metodologia lor de calcul, au fost analizate avantajele și dezavantajele acestora. Pe aceasta baza, se concluzioneaza ca fiecare indicator caracterizeaza doar un aspect al inegalitații. Prin urmare, pentru o evaluare complexa a inegalitații, este necesar de a utiliza un sistem complex de indicatori. Cu toate acestea, in practica, datorita capacitaților statistice limitate ale Republicii Moldova, evaluarea inegalitații veniturilor populației se efectueaza utilizand doar unii indicatori.
Most scientific research dedicated to income inequality of the population uses the standard set of indicators. Usually, these are the Gini coefficient and the quintile / decile coefficient of inequality. At the same time, other indicators are often not taken into account, which significantly restrictsthe possibility of an objective assessment of inequality and the development of measures aimed at reducing the level of income inequality of the population. The purpose of the research is to examine the indicators used in global practice in measuring inequality, to analyze their calculation methodology and to assess the level of income inequality of the population of the Republic of Moldova. Research methods: comparison, analogies, monograph, statistics, analysis and synthesis. Research results. The comparative analysis of the main indicators of inequality, their calculation methodology was performed, their advantages and disadvantages were analyzed. On this basis, it isconcluded that each indicator characterizes only one aspect of inequality. Therefore, for a complex assessment of inequality, it is necessary to use a complex system of indicators. However, in practice, due to the limited statistical capacities of the Republic of Moldova, the assessment of income inequality of the population is performed using only some indicators.
