Foreword; N.Lustig -- Preface; N.Kakwani -- Introduction: Quantitative Approaches to Multidimensional Poverty Measurement; N.Kakwani & J.Silber -- The Information Theory Approach; E.Maasoumi & M.A.Lugo -- The Fuzzy Approach to Multidimensional Poverty; G.Betti, B.Cheli, A.Lemmi & V.Verma -- The Rasch Model and Multidimensional Poverty Measurement; A.Fusco & P.Dickes -- Multidimensional Poverty: Factor and Cluster Analysis; G.F.Luzzi, Y.Flèuckiger & S.Weber -- Multidimensional Poverty andMultiple Correspondence Analysis; L-M.Asselin & V.T.Anh -- Permanent Income, Poverty Measurement andthe MIMIC Model; R.H.Abul Naga & E.Bolzani-- Multidimensional Measures of Poverty and Well-Being based on LatentVariable Models; J.Krishnakumar -- The Subjective Approach to Multidimensional Poverty Measurement; B.van Praag & A.Ferrer-i-Carbonell -- TheEconometric Approach to Efficiency Analysis; X.Ramos -- Efficiency Analysis and the Lower Convex Hull; G.Anderson, I.Crawford & A.Leicester -- TheAxiomatic Approach to Multidimensional Poverty Measurement; S.R.Chakravarty & J.Silber -- Determiningthe Parameters of Axiomatically Derived Multidimensional Poverty Indices; C.E.Velez & M.Robles --The Order of Acquisition of Durable Goods and the Measurement of Multidimensional Poverty; J.Deutsch &J.Silber -- Using an Ordinal Approach to Multidimensional Poverty Analysis; J-Y.Duclos, D.Sahn &S.D.Younger.

This book explores the latest developments in the field of multidimensional poverty measurement poverty measurement. It includes clear presentations of more than a dozen different quantitative techniques based respectively on information and fuzzy sets theory, the Rasch model, Factor, Clusterand Multiple Correspondence and Analysis, MIMIC and structural equations models, efficiency analysis, axiomatic, subjective and ordinal approaches to the topic. The book provides empirical illustrations based on data sources from developed or developing countries. This book aims at contributing to the debate concerning multidimensional poverty measurement. Progress in this domain will not be possible if the various approaches available are not known to those working in the field.Unfortunately several of them seem to have been completely ignored by many specialists. This book represents, therefore, a unique opportunityto become familiar with the present state of the knowledge.
