Inequality estimates in wages are utilized, with the aim of measuring whether the patterns of inequality between wage earners are different from the inequality for the total workforce. Relationships between changes in income distribution profiles and in occupational and class structure reflect that in spite of some significant changes in race-class inequality, there still persists an important dimension for the continuation of original class inequality.Text1 digital file (104 p. : ill.)application/pdfenINCOME DISTRIBUTIONEQUITYSOCIAL CLASSESLABOUR MARKETSOCCUPATIONAL STRUCTURESURVEYSECONOMETRICSURBANIZATIONHUMAN RESOURCES DEVELOPMENTPatterns of income inequality in Brazil : recent evolution; project paper D (Brazil)IHD-Cebrap project on Labour Market Inequality in Brazil and IndiaSynthesis Report
