Poverty dynamics in rural Madagascar: regularities and specificities at the regional level\r\n (In French)

Abstract

Poverty is a temporal phenomenon and its evolutions have to be studied. Nevertheless, it is overall important to understand the working process which explains trajectories of poverty, at both levels of households and regional under-groups. Carrying out an applied study on rural Madagascar, the article shows that poverty dynamics can not be properly understood without a territorial approach.Chronic poverty, transitory poverty, regional dynamics, rural Madagascar
