VIII . ANALYSIS OF POVERTY DYNAMICS Paul
نویسنده
چکیده
Chapter 7 focused almost exclusively on analysis of poverty at a single point in time. Yet, in a given time period, people may be poor either because theyve always been poor or because they have suffered a negative shock that temporarily pushed them below the poverty line. With a single cross-sectional survey, it is difficult to separate these two types of poverty even though each may require different policy prescriptions. Therefore, this chapter extends the analysis of Chapter 7 to many time periods, and thus it, it is concerned with the dynamics of poverty.
