  <dc:description xml:lang="eng">ABSTRACT:
We examine sources of income and wage inequality in three transition
countries. Our results reveal that much lower inequality of disposable
income in Slovenia than in Croatia and Serbia can mainly be explained
by more equally distributed net wages across households. This is partly
attributed to the lower fraction of households with very low work
intensity in Slovenia than in the other two countries, combined with
a higher redistributive capacity of taxes and social transfers. We find
that educational qualifications and both quantity and quality of work,
play an important role in explaining differences in wage inequality in
all three countries.</dc:description>
