An attempt to define, measure and explain poverty is presented in this volume by means of a newly developed theoretical model. A combination of theory and empirical application is achieved by using the theoretical model on a sizeable data set derived from an extensive survey conducted in eight European countries. The nature of poverty is thereby empirically defined (and not a priori) as being the income level at which households feel that their income is just between sufficient and insufficient. An aggregate poverty index, associated with this poverty line definition, is calculated for each country and for subgroups within each country. Conclusions for social policy are drawn, describing which groups are at especially high risk of entering poverty, and who therefore need more specific policies. It is also discussed to what extent economic growth will eliminate poverty and which alternative measures are available.

In 2000, the fight against poverty was declared the world's development goal No. 1. Unfortunately, the international as well as academic communities have failed to establish a universal definition of poverty. Since the definition of any problem plays a vital role for its perception, discussion, and finally solution, this thesis' mission is to shed light on the perception of poverty within a specific part of the poverty alleviation literature: The market-based Bottom of the Pyramid concept. Guided by the research question "What is the perception of poverty in the Bottom of the Pyramid debate" this thesis provides in-depth literature reviews and deconstructs both the poverty definition debate as well as the Bottom of the Pyramid (BOP) debate into their main building blocks. The analysis of a sample of 100 pieces of BOP literature reveals the current explicit and implicit perceptions of poverty within the BOP debate and helps to verify the hypothesis: Similar to the poverty debate in general, there is no commonly agreed upon definition of poverty. However, a general pattern can be witnessed: While explicit definitions predominantly use income-based variables, implicitly, a multidimensional approach is applied. Consequentially, this thesis argues that within the poverty alleviation branch of the BOP literature, a common understanding of poverty must be reached before further steps toward its solution can be taken.

The researchers who have written this volume are clear not only that mass poverty is still the leading humanitarian crisis in developing countries, but that, if effective policies are to be put in place, the national elites who control governments and economies need to be convinced of both the reasons why reducing poverty is in their own and the national interest, and that public action can make a difference. Remarkably, in the rapidly growing literature on poverty, this volume is the first to use survey techniques to explore Third World elites' attitudes to poverty. Five cases - intended to be broadly representative of the diversity of situations in developing countries - were chosen: Brazil, South Africa, the Philippines, Bangladesh and Haiti. While the authors found major differences in how national elites understand and represent poverty, the classic threats that induced elites in late 19th Century Europe to be concerned with reducing poverty - the fear of crime, epidemics, military weakness or political unrest - do not feature prominently in the consciousness of most Third World elites. Nor do most of them believe that there is a viable solution to poverty through public action. The findings in this book throw light on one reason for the relative ineffectiveness of poverty reduction strategies hitherto, and the huge importance of presenting the problem of poverty in ways that fit more closely with the ways in which national elites understand their world.
