abstract: '``I saw discrimination lead to poverty, I saw episodic high levels of
unemployment, I saw business cycles and I saw all kinds of
inequalities....{''''}{[}1].
Post Soviet countries and among of them Georgia shows a fast growing
asymmetry in the distribution of income and wealth during transition
period. In this paper is analyzed the determinants of inequality in
Georgia starting with factors influencing the changing distribution of
wages, income and the others being at the core of economic inequality.
Inequality can also be framed in a broader sense than income, e. g.
inequality in consumption, or inequality of resources, including assets
and wealth. Not very surprisingly a strong correlation between output
loss in the early phase of transition and the rise of inequality
measures as the change of Gini coefficient which is a measure of
inequality.
Purpose: The discussion on the development of inequality in Georgia and
analysis the possible reasons for the observed increase of inequality.
The recent situation of inequality in Georgia well as its development
since 1990 have analyzed taking into account the profound political,
economic as well as social transition having occurred in Georgia.
Looking at the development of average inequality in the regions of
Georgia, we see that in all of these cases the liberalization of markets
led to a sudden rise in income dispersion. The fall of labor demand as
well as the liberalization of labor market regulations were accompanied
by the emergence of all kinds of less regulated forms of employment. The
elimination of legal restrictions on private business activity and
ownership gave rise to self-employment throughout country. In
particular, in Georgia the sharp and persistent fall in labor demand of
enterprises forced workers to move into low-productivity jobs in the
service sector or subsistence agriculture, since in many of the regions
of Georgia social protection is lacking and the status of unemployment
is not an affordable option, but labor supply was reduced.
Methodology: to state the desirable properties of measures of inequality
when the variable under study is ordinal and check which properties are
fulfilled by the various indicators.
Conclusions: The choice of the main indicators which were highly
correlated with others for studying of economic inequality''s in Georgia
are: Health insurance, homelessness, income inequality, wage inequality,
deregulation labor, internal displaced community, income distribution,
Middle class is not formed in Georgia and differences between rich and
low classes are very high. As the data by state statistics is not
presented for these indicators in series by years, this work have to
provide more carefully consistently again.'
