This paper addresses the problem of rsnking distributions of attributes in terms of poverty, when the attributes are represented by binary variables. To accomplish this task a suitable notion of 'multidimensional poverty line' is introduced. The Head-Count and the Attribute Gap rankings are characterized. Applications to poverty data for EU Countries are also provided and discussed.

Abstract

This paper addresses the problem of rsnking distributions of attributes in terms of poverty, when the attributes are represented by binary variables. To accomplish this task a suitable notion of 'multidimensional poverty line' is introduced. The Head-Count and the Attribute Gap rankings are characterized. Applications to poverty data for EU Countries are also provided and discussed.
