Definition

  • THE LUXEMBOURG INCOME Study (LIS) is a project that brings together household surveys from 25 countries (surveys from four other countries are under negotiation) into a common database to make studies of international economic comparisons easier. For instance, it includes current population surveys from the United States, French surveys of income, and a Hungarian income study. [Source: Encyclopedia of World Poverty; Luxembourg Income Study]
