Counting and Multidimensional Poverty
The concept of multidimensional poverty has risen to prominence among researchers and policymakers. The compelling writings of Amartya Sen, participatory poverty exercises in many countries, and the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) all draw attention to the multiple deprivations suffered by many of the poor and the interconnections among these deprivations. A key task for research has been t...
متن کاملCounting and Multidimensional Poverty Measurement
This paper proposes a new methodology for multidimensional poverty measurement consisting of an identification method ρk that extends the traditional intersection and union approaches, and a class of poverty measures Mα. Our identification step employs two forms of cutoff: one within each dimension to determine whether a person is deprived in that dimension, and a second across dimensions that ...
متن کاملMeasuring Chronic Multidimensional Poverty: A Counting Approach
How can indices of multidimensional poverty be adapted to produce measures that quantify both the joint incidence of multiple deprivations and their chronicity? This paper adopts a new approach to the measurement of chronic multidimensional poverty. It relies on the counting approach of Alkire and Foster (2011) for the measurement of multidimensional poverty in each time period and then on the ...
متن کاملPoverty Orderings
This paper reviews the literature of partial poverty orderings. Partial poverty orderings require unanimous poverty rankings for a class of poverty measures or a set of poverty lines. The need to consider multiple poverty measures and multiple poverty lines arises inevitably from the arbitrariness inherent in poverty comparisons. In the paper, we first survey the ordering conditions of various ...
متن کاملMeasuring Acute Poverty in the Developing World: Robustness and Scope of the Multidimensional Poverty Index
