摘要:Poverty is a very widespread phenomenon directly related to consumption (or income) and other important problems of everyday life, such as the lack of appropriate infrastructure, security, quality of health and education, etc. Poverty is traditionally measured in monetary terms. After an aggregate income, expenditure is defined to measure poverty; the next step is the definition of one or more poverty lines. Based on a monetary concept, all individuals who fall under a certain line called poverty line are considered poor people.
