| Summary: | Using the most popular measures of inequality and recent statistical data, the authors estimate interregional inequalities in Russia. The specific aim of this study is to identify inequality in well-being indicators, which were calculated using a multiplicative model based on the A. Sen extended function. Our calculations have revealed that there is a significant interregional differentiation in the social well-being level. The environmentally adjusted well-being exhibits higher levels of inequality than the indicator that does not take into account the environmental component. The paper shows that from 2008 to 2018 the gaps between Russian regions had in some cases increased. |
