Analysis Poverty and Dominance in Argentina
Keywords:
Absolute poverty, Relative poverty, Stochastic dominanceAbstract
This paper analyzes the evolution of poverty in Argentina and Gran Córdoba. The analysis shows that poverty has declined in urban areas and Gran Córdoba, although its magnitude depends of the poverty line used. To carry out unmistakable estimates of the evolution of poverty, the method of stochastic dominance is used to determine how poverty has evolved, observing its reduction in the relevant range.
