Utilizando cortes transversales repetidos se estudió la desigualdad de ingresos para los individuos nacidos entre 1924 y 1991 y se vinculó con variables relevantes en la teoría del capital humano. Aplicando una metodología de descomposición se separó esta evolución en los efectos cohorte, edad y periodo. Los resultados muestran que la desigualdad, medida por la varianza del logaritmo del ingreso, aumenta sostenidamente a lo largo de las generaciones. Dicho crecimiento se explica por aumentos de la desigualdad en la parte baja y media de la distribución y por un aumento en el ratio de ingresos los percentiles más altos respecto de los más bajos. La evolución de los años de educación promedio, su dispersión y los retornos a la educación permiten logran explicar el patrón observado en la desigualdad por generaciones en su totalidad.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="en"><p><![CDATA[Abstract: This paper analyzes the evolution of wage inequality in Uruguay across generations using synthetic cohorts. Using repeated cross sections we study income dispersion amongst individuals born between 1924 and 1991. A decomposition methodology was used to disentangle the period, age and cohort effects. The results show that inequality, measured by the variance of log-earnings, increases steadily when comparing younger to older generations. This result is caused by an increase of the dispersion in the low and medium part of the income distribution and a rise in the ratio between high and low income percentiles. In order to explain the evolution of observed inequality between cohorts, variables related to human capital literature were used. Changes in the average years of education, its dispersion and returns to schooling explain the observed pattern in wage inequality across generations entirely.]]></p></abstract>
