Abstract
The objective of this report is to
contribute towards institutional capacity building for
regular monitoring and analysis of poverty, as well as other
indicators of living conditions and social inclusion. This
report analyzes the poverty trends and profile using the
national absolute poverty line, which measures changes in
the level of welfare and allows for a more straightforward
interpretation of comparisons over time. Chapter 1 presents
an overview of poverty dynamics using both relative and
absolute measures of poverty, and explores the reasons for
the observed difference in trends between the two measures.
Chapter 2 investigates the relationship between economic
growth, inequality and poverty in Romania during the period
1995 and 2006.
