Multidimensional of Household Inequality: A Conceptual Study

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to provide a conceptual study on the identification of possible multidimensional inequalities between households. It covers dimensions of inequality, which are very important to provide a comprehensive view of household inequality. A review of the literature is employed in this study to examine the previous works of this area and the theory of inequality. It is very interesting to note that, very few studies focus on the multidimensional of household inequality. In addition, this study suggests a cumulative inequality theory that supports the ability of multidimensional application to measure household inequalities. Therefore, this paper offers significant implications to the researchers, regulators and the government to utilise the multidimensional of household inequality in guiding them for future research and decision making.
