Lorenz curve was developed by Max O Lorenz in 1905 for representing inequality of the wealth distribution of a country or province.
The Lorenz curve is used to show what percentage of a nation's residents possess what percentage of that nation's wealth. While the Lorenz curve is most often used to represent economic inequality, it can be used to represent inequality in any system.
The Kuznets curve is a hypothetical curve that graphs economic inequality against per capita income over the course of economic development.
In the 1950s and 1960s, Simon Kuznets hypothesized that as an economy develops, market forces first increase then decrease the overall economic inequality of the society, which is illustrated by the inverted U-shape of the Kuznets curve.
