We investigate how to make poverty comparisons using multidimensional indicators of well-being, showing in particular … how to check whether the comparisons are robust to aggregation procedures and to the choice of multidimensional poverty … various multidimensional poverty estimators, including estimators of the "critical" poverty frontiers outside which …

We investigate spatial poverty comparisons in three African countries using multidimensional indicators of well …-being. The work is analogous to the univariate stochastic dominance literature in that we seek poverty orderings that are robust … to the choice of multidimensional poverty lines and indices. In addition, we wish to ensure that our comparisons are …

This paper provides a method to make robust multidimensional poverty comparisons when one or more of the dimensions of … well-being or deprivation is discrete. Sampling distributions for the statistics used in these poverty comparisons are … information than do univariate poverty comparisons. …

As is illustrated in this paper, estimated poverty changes may be … a new numerical method to allow to estimate accurately the impact of distributive changes on poverty. …

The poverty impact of indirect tax reforms is analyzed using sequential stochastic dominance methods. This allows …
