Abstract

[eng] Freedom of Choice in the Time-Income Curve Context: A Quantification Test, . by Jérôme Wittwer.. . The freedom of choice available to an agent in the time-income context appears to provide a more convincing definition of the standard of living than classic definitions. By extending a result obtained by Pattanaik and Xu, this article proposes a cardinal valuation of the freedom of choice from the point of view of the time-income curve as well as a comparison between the concentrations of income distributions and the freedom of choice. [fre] La liberté de choix dans l'espace temps revenu : un essai de quantification, . par Jérôme Wittwer.. . La liberté de choix offerte par l'ensemble de choix d'un agent sur l'espace temps-revenu semble offrir une définition plus convaincante du niveau de vie que les définitions traditionnelles. Dans le prolongement d'un résultat de Pattanaik et Xu nous proposons dans cette note une valorisation cardinale de la liberté de choix dans l'espace temps-revenu, ainsi qu'une comparaison entre les concentrations des distributions du revenu et de la liberté de choix. [ger] Die Wahlfreiheit im Zeit-/Einkommensraum: ein Quantifizierungsversuch, . von Jérôme Wittwer.. . Die Wahlfreiheit, uber die ein Wirtschaftssubjekt im Zeit-/Einkommensraum hinsichtlich aller angebotenen Wahlmöglichkeiten verfügt, scheint eine überzeugendere Definition des Lebensstandards als die herkömmlichen Begriffsbestimmungen zu geben. In Anknüpfung an ein Pattanaik- und Xu-Ergebnis schlagen wir in diesem Artikel eine kardinale Aufwertung der Wahlfreiheit im Zeit-/Einkommensraum sowie einen Vergleich zwischen den Konzentrationen der Einkommensverteilungen und der Wahlfreiheit vor. [spa] La libertad de eleccion en el espacio tiempo-renta : ensayo de cuantificaciôn . por érôme Wittwer . La libertad de eleccion brindada por el conjunto de las posibilidades de eleccion de un agente respecto al espacio tiempo-renta parece presenter una definiciôn mas convincente del nivel de vida que las definiciones tradicionales. En la prolongation de un resultado de Pattanaik y Xu proponemos en esta resena una valorization cardinal de la libertad de eleccion en el espacio tiempo-renta, asi como una comparaciôn entre las concentraciones de las distribuciones de la renta y de la libertad de eleccion.
