description Inequality in tax revenue per capita for municipalities and provinces of the department of Boyacá and its evolution, is analyzed using three indicators (Gini, Theil and sigma factor), for approaching to the explanation of the contribution of taxation decentralization process in the reduction of inter municipal and provincial disparities. The results suggest that in tax matters there is a process of convergence, moreover, to contrast them with indicators such as the NBI, the percentage of population in poverty and the Gini expenditure by municipality, in 1993 and 2005, the latter presented important decreases that somehow confirm the improvement in the taxation equity indicators.

Descentralización fiscal finanzas públicas ingresos fiscales. (Taxation decentralization public finance tax revenue) Inequality in tax revenue per capita for municipalities and provinces of the department of Boyacá and its evolution, is analyzed using three indicators (Gini, Theil and sigma factor), for approaching to the explanation of the contribution of taxation decentralization process in the reduction of inter municipal and provincial disparities. The results suggest that in tax matters there is a process of convergence, moreover, to contrast them with indicators such as the NBI, the percentage of population in poverty and the Gini expenditure by municipality, in 1993 and 2005, the latter presented important decreases that somehow confirm the improvement in the taxation equity indicators. La desigualdad de los ingresos fiscales per cápita de los municipios y provincias del departamento de Boyacá y su evolución, es analizada utilizando tres indicadores (Gini, Theil y coeficiente sigma), para acercarse a la explicación de la contribución del proceso de descentralización fiscal en la reducción de las disparidades intermunicipales y provinciales. De los resultados obtenidos, se deduce que en materia fiscal hay un proceso de convergencia, además, al contrastarlos con indicadores como el NBI, el porcentaje de población en situación de pobreza y el Gini de gastos por municipio, en 1993 y 2005, estos últimos presentan disminuciones importantes que en cierta forma corroboran la mejora en los indicadores de equidad.
