description | The objective of this work is to contribute elements about a “taboo” debate, a few years ago, since to speak of inequality was to promote the “class struggle”. The source of information is the Encuesta nacional de presupuestos de hogares and income tax returns. The combination of these two sources of information is necessary to make an approximation to the distribution of income in Colombia, considered the third most unequal country in the world. Similarly, high levels of income concentration are observed, as well as a middle class with a high probability of falling into poverty given the confinement, since 42% of it has an average income between 2 and 3 current legal minimum wages. |

The source of information is the Encuesta nacional de presupuestos de hogares and income tax returns. The combination of these two sources of information is necessary to make an approximation to the distribution of income in Colombia, considered the third most unequal country in the world. Similarly, high levels of income concentration are observed, as well as a middle class with a high probability of falling into poverty given the confinement, since 42% of it has an average income between 2 and 3 current legal minimum wages. El objetivo de este trabajo es aportar elementos sobre un debate “tabú”, hace unos años, pues hablar de desigualdad era fomentar la “lucha de clases”. La fuente de información es la Encuesta nacional de presupuestos de hogares y las declaraciones fiscales del impuesto a la renta. La combinación de estas dos fuentes de información es necesaria para realizar una aproximación a la distribución del ingreso en Colombia, considerado el tercer país con mayor desigualdad en el mundo. De igual manera, se observan unos altos niveles de concentración del ingreso, así como una clase media con una alta probabilidad de caer en la pobreza dado el confinamiento, pues el 42% de esta tiene un ingreso promedio entre 2 y 3 salarios mínimos legales vigentes. 2021-11-10T00:53:01Z 2021-11-10T00:53:01Z 2020-06-15 info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501 info:eu-repo/semantics/article http://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85 http://revistas.uan.edu.co/index.php/papeles/article/view/639 10.54104/papeles.v12n23.639 http://repositorio.uan.edu.co/handle/123456789/5454 spa http://revistas.uan.edu.co/index.php/papeles/article/view/639/542 http://revistas.uan.edu.co/index.php/papeles/article/view/639/709 Acceso abierto Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International (CC BY-NC-SA 4.0) https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/ info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess http://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2 application/pdf text/xml Universidad Antonio Nariño 2346-0911 0123-0670 10.54104/papeles.v12n23 PAPELES; Vol. 12 No. 23 (2020); 19-38 PAPELES; Vol. 12 Núm. 23 (2020); 19-38 |
