Overview

China has made huge economic strides in recent decades but poverty is still a major issue on the agenda for rural China. Poverty and Development in China analyses how poverty is recognized and measured and how people in poverty are identified, literally asking: who is poor in China? The author uses five alternative recognition approaches - monetary, capabilities, participatory, social exclusion, and multidimensional - and applies them to the same population of households in Yunnan Province in order to make explicit valid comparisons and deductions about the impact of different approaches on poverty identification and measurement.
