三 结论与讨论

人类对贫困的认识在不断进步,对于贫困的测量也在不断完善。用于全球贫困监测的两类贫困标准,即收入/消费标准和多维贫困指数,是目前反映人类贫困最为成熟的方法。这两种贫困标准,对于加强我国的贫困监测,贯彻实施《中国农村扶贫开发纲要(2011~2020年)》都有重要参考价值。

收入/消费标准能够简单地从货币视角捕获贫困人口的经济状况,是制定反贫困战略和政策简单易懂的贫困测量方法。多维贫困指数把贫困测量拓展到更加全面的维度和指标,以更多的变量来反映人的生活质量。多维贫困指数的出现是人类测量贫困以来的巨大进步,弥补了以往贫困测量对于福祉衡量的不足。该方法特别有助于决定反贫困公共政策干预的优先顺序。不仅能够准确地监测贫困状况,而且能够为反贫困战略和政策提供明确的指向。
