Measurement of Polarization for a Dimension of Human Well-being with Ordinal Significance.- Chapter 7. Fractionalization, Polarization and Conflict.This monograph initially offers a systematic treatment of the theory and methodology of alternative notions of income polarization and related issues. It then goes on to analyze social polarization, ordinal polarization, and the relations between inequality polarization, fractionalization and likelihood of conflicts. Axiomatic approaches to the measurement of polarization from different perspectives are analyzed rigorously. In order to understand the difference between inequality and polarization, a discussion on income inequality is also included.Economic Studies in Inequality, Social Exclusion and Well-Being,2364-107X ;12Development economicsEconomic theorySocial policyEconomic policyLabor economicsDevelopment Economicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W42000Economic Theory/Quantitative Economics/Mathematical Methodshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W29000Social Policyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W34020Economic Policyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W34010Labor Economicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W37000Development economics.Economic theory.Social policy.Economic policy.Labor economics.Development Economics.Economic Theory/Quantitative Economics/Mathematical Methods.Social Policy.Economic Policy.Labor Economics.338.9Chakravarty Satya Rauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut239019BOOK9910298485403321Inequality, Polarization and Conflict2519947UNINA
