We develop a poverty decomposition method that is based on a consumption regression model. Because this method uses an … integral of the partial derivatives of a poverty measure with respect to time, the resulting poverty decomposition satisfies … time-reversion consistency and sub-period additivity. Unlike the existing poverty decomposition methods, it allows us to …

Understanding chronic poverty and its evolution is complex given the amount of information involved. This paper … proposes a new approach to analysing the evolution of chronic poverty in a multivariate setting using a Shapley decomposition … of a multidimensional chronic poverty measure proposed by Alkire and colleagues. This makes it possible to assess a vast …
