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.application/pdftext/xmlspaUNIVERSIDAD ANTONIO NARIÑOhttps://revistas.uan.edu.co/index.php/papeles/article/view/639/542https://revistas.uan.edu.co/index.php/papeles/article/view/639/709https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0http://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2Papeles; Vol. 12 No. 23 (2020); 19-38Papeles; Vol. 12 Núm. 23 (2020); 19-38Papeles; v. 12 n. 23 (2020); 19-382346-09110123-067010.54104/papeles.v12n23distribución del ingresodesigualdadlucha de clasesinequalityincome concentrationclass struggleTechnical elements for a necessary debate on income concentration measurements in ColombiaElementos técnicos para un necesario debate sobre mediciones de concentración de ingresos en Colombiainfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionhttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_2df8fbb1http://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85Garay S., Luis JorgeEspitia Z., Jorge Enrique123456789/10968oai:repositorio.uan.edu.co:123456789/109682024-10-14 03:48:03.34metadata.onlyhttps://repositorio.uan.edu.coRepositorio Institucional UANalertas.repositorio@uan.edu.co
