Trends <\/div>\n
in Inequality within zambia over time<\/div>\n
Now that you know how to create Lorenz curves, use <\/div>\n
these<\/div>\n
curves for 1980, 1990, 2000, and 2010 to compare <\/div>\n
inequality over time for zambia as the unequally distributed country.<\/div>\n
In your discussion, do some research into your <\/div>\n
country and suggest some possible reasons for the changes you have seen over time.<\/div>\n
For your country, include <\/div>\n
information about the origin of inequality along with reasons for the changes you have seen over time. <\/div>\n
You <\/div>\n
must present your Lorenz <\/div>\n
curves in<\/div>\n
your essay along with your discussion.<\/div>\n
For this section, limit your discussion to 250 words.<\/div>\n
Part B<\/div>\n
: <\/div>\n
Trends in Inequality between countries zambia and sweden over time<\/div>\n
Create Lorenz curves for two different countries for comparison at two points in time. To do this, you will need <\/div>\n
to go back to the original dataset. Filter this data to include the two countries you have been assigned and the <\/div>\n
data for 1980 and 2010. Once y<\/div>\n
ou have done this, create Lorenz curves <\/div>\n
(using the same method outlined above) <\/div>\n
and<\/div>\n
discuss differences between the countries at the start of the period and then how inequality has changed <\/div>\n
30 years later. <\/div>\n
Your discu<\/div>\n
ssion must include the reasons\/policies that have led to the ob<\/div>\n
served changes in <\/div>\n
inequality in the two countries.<\/div>\n
You must <\/div>\n
include your Lorenz curves along with your discussion.<\/div>\n
For this section, limit your discussion to 250 words. <\/div>\n
Part C<\/div>\n
: What drives inequality in South Africa?<\/div>\n
While measuring income inequality is certainly an important component <\/div>\n
of overall inequality in a country, there <\/div>\n
are other dimensions across which individuals are uneven. <\/div>\n
Educational attainment is often suggested as a driver <\/div>\n
of income inequality<\/div>\n
. While there <\/div>\n
have<\/div>\n
been improvement<\/div>\n
s<\/div>\n
in educational access since 1994, achievement <\/div>\n
within the education sector is not equally distributed. <\/div>\n
This portion of the assignment focusses on the <\/div>\n
performance of <\/div>\n
the South<\/div>\n
African education system<\/div>\n
compared to <\/div>\n
the more even distri<\/div>\n
buted country you were <\/div>\n
assigned.<\/div>\n
Specifically, you should:<\/div>\n
a.<\/div>\n
Explain the<\/div>\n
historical roots of inequality in (access to) education in South Africa<\/div>\n
.<\/div>\n
b.<\/div>\n
Use data from <\/div>\n
ourworldindata<\/div>\n
.org<\/div>\n
to highlight some issues with the South African education system <\/div>\n
that may contribute to the persistence of inequality in South Africa. <\/div>\n
(<\/div>\n
Towards the bottom of the page, <\/div>\n
you will find some interactive graphs that you could use to argue your point.<\/div>\n
When making your <\/div>\n
comparisons, please include screenshots of the interactive graphs you are referencing.<\/div>\n
)<\/div>\n
c.<\/div>\n
Discuss interventions\/policies\/reforms that have been implemented to reduces inequality in (access to) <\/div>\n
Education. Do you think these interventions\/policies\/reforms have been effective in reducing inequality<\/div>\n
