Abstract

Este trabajo se basa en el concepto de heterogeneidad estructural propuesto por CEPAL y desarrolla el vinculo existente entre la heterogeneidad productiva y la desigual distribución del ingreso para el caso de Ecuador; el objetivo principal del estudio es conocer qué porcentaje de la desigualdad se explica por las diferencias en los ingresos entre estratos productivos. El principal resultado muestra que la desigualdad explicada por las diferencias de los ingresos entre estratos productivos se ha incrementado significativamente en las dos últimas décadas, pasando de explicar 6% de la desigualdad en los ingresos laborales de los ocupados en 1990 a explicar el 19% en 2009.
