Description
A poverty line helps focus the attention of governments and civil society on the living conditions of the poor.

In reviewing the methods found in practice, the paper tries to throw light on, and go some way toward resolving, ongoing debates about poverty measurement, emphasizing those debates which would appear to have greatest bearing on policy discussions.
