contents Path independent multiplicatively decomposable inequality measures Ma Casilda Lasso de la Vega Ana Marta Urrutia Economía y Finanzas Atkinson inequality measure path independent decomposition Foster and Shneyerov (2000) explore an additive decomposition property forinequality measures that they call path independent decomposition. Theycharacterise the class of measures that have this property. Taking their resultsas a reference, we seek here to generalise the notion of decomposability,and to characterise inequality measures that admit path independent multiplicativedecomposition. It is shown that all the measures in this family canbe generated on the basis of Atkinson’s index for value 1 of the inequalityaversion parameter. 2005 artículo científico 0210-1521 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=17329206 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=173 Investigaciones Económicas application/pdf Fundación SEPI Investigaciones Económicas (España) Num.2 Vol.XXIX
