Inequality Of Opportunity And Growth (2013, methodology): “3 Empirical papers tend to justify this ambiguity through the quality of data (Deininger and Squire, 1996), the inconsistent nature of inequality measures (Knowles, 2001), the type of inequality index (Székely, 2003), the econometric method (Forbes, 2000) or the set of countries considered and their”
