We consider an entropic distance analog quantity based on the density of the Gini index in the Lorenz map, i.e., gintropy. Such a quantity might be used for pairwise mapping and ranking between various countries and regions based on income and wealth inequality.
Its generalization to f-gintropy, using a function of the income or wealth value, distinguishes between regional inequalities more sensitively than the original construction.
