This paper contributes to the well-being and poverty discussion with an analysis of interdependent multidimensional (IMD) poverty of time and income, which in particular restricts social participation. The working poor focus is on the self-employed as (liberal) professionals and entrepreneurs....

This paper focuses on interdependent multidimensional poverty of time and income with its incidence and intensity. We introduce a Two Dimensional Minimum Poverty Gap (2DGAP) measure, which quantifies the shortest path to escape multidimensional poverty. The 2DGAP disentangles single poverty...

Extending the traditional income poverty concept by multidimensional poverty has been of growing interest within the last years. This paper contributes with an analysis of interdependent multidimensional (IMD) poverty intensity of time and income, which in particular restricts social...
