Abstract

Every poverty measure should be expressed as a function of three poverty components; incidence, intensity and inequality among the poor. If it is possible, the sources of changes in poverty will be easier to compute, since we are able to know the contribution of each component to the total pover¬ty change. In this paper, firstly we do a review of the existing poverty decompositions in these three terms. Then, we find new decompositions for some poverty measures and additional ones for others. Summarizing, decompositions in the three terms of poverty can be found for almost all the poverty measures.

贫困在发生率、强度和不平等方面的分解。回顾

每一项贫穷措施都应表示为三个贫穷组成部分的函数;穷人的发病率、强度和不平等。如果可能的话，贫困变化的来源将更容易计算，因为我们能够知道每个组成部分对总贫困变化的贡献。在本文中，我们首先对这三个方面的现有贫困分解进行了回顾。然后，我们发现一些贫困指标的新分解和其他指标的附加分解。综上所述，几乎所有的贫困指标都可以找到三个贫困指标的分解。
