GASPARINI, Leonardo  e  BRACCO, Jessica. Three decades in ten graphs: Inclusive development in Latin America through the lens of household surveys. Desarro. soc. [online]. 2023, n.94, pp.37-67.  Epub 31-Maio-2023. ISSN 0120-3584.  https://doi.org/10.13043/dys.94.2.

This paper analyzes the development of Latin America over the past three decades by using growth incidence curves and weighted growth rates calculated on the basis of harmonized microdata from national household surveys. Over the past three decades, Latin America has made progress in fundamental socioeconomic indicators. On average, there has been significant growth in income as well as some educational and housing variables, particularly among the lower income strata. In contrast, progress was slower among the most vulnerable population in other important areas (e.g., higher education, female labor participation). Despite notable improvements in various areas of development captured through household surveys, the evidence reveals that substantial shortfalls and disparities still persist.
