Moreno-Ternero Economía y Finanzas compensation responsibility inequality indices relative deprivation Equality of opportunity We study in this paper mechanisms to construct equal-opportunity policiesfor resource allocation. In a model where individuals enjoy welfare as a functionof the e��ort they expend, and the amount of a socially provided resourcethey consume, the aim is to allocate the social resource so that the inequalityof welfare across individuals at the same relative e��ort level is minimized.In doing so, and as opposed to other existing mechanisms for the designof equal-opportunity policies, we account for the hypothetical relative deprivationamong equally-deserving individuals. Besides studying these mechanismsgenerically, we analyze their performance in the context of the deliveryof health care resources. 2007 artículo científico 0210-1521 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=17331301 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=173 Investigaciones Económicas application/pdf Fundación SEPI Investigaciones Económicas (España) Num.3 Vol.XXXI
