Description
The income-poor population in any society is typically identified with reference to a poverty line. The evolution of monetary poverty lines in various concrete historical settings has been attended by several conceptual difficulties. This book reviews and critically interprets India’s poverty norms, the US Federal Government’s poverty thresholds, and the World Bank’s international poverty lines. It is a short introduction to the analytics and politics underlying the poverty line—a subject shot through with controversy and disputation, not least because the line plays such a crucial role in determining the measured magnitude and trends of a society’s poverty.
