This paper aims at capturing the level of deprivation of São Paulo’s population in 2000 as suffered by its inhabitants in a non-income framework. We construct a measure of functioning failure which indicates the degree to which functionings that are considered relevant in the city districts are not available to the individuals. Deprivation is measured by various indices proposed in the literature: 1) the Yitzhaki, 2) the Esteban and Ray, and 3) the Bossert, D’Ambrosio and Peragine indices.

Abstract

This paper aims at capturing the level of deprivation of São Paulo’s population in 2000 as suffered by its inhabitants in a non-income framework. We construct a measure of functioning failure which indicates the degree to which functionings that are considered relevant in the city districts are not available to the individuals. Deprivation is measured by various indices proposed in the literature: 1) the Yitzhaki, 2) the Esteban and Ray, and 3) the Bossert, D’Ambrosio and Peragine indices.
