Resumen
CASAS HERRERA, Julián Augusto y MUNOZ CONDE, Manuel. An alternative proposal for the existing indigence and poverty lines in Colombia. Cuad. Econ. [online]. 2017, vol.36, n.spe72, pp.179-205. ISSN 0121-4772. https://doi.org/10.15446/cuad.econ.v36n72.65875.
According to DANE, poverty in Colombia has significantly declined over recent years. This is a controversial revelation as the economic conditions of society do not reflect the statement. Based on the differences established between the two methodologies used to measure poverty -the old methodology (AM) and the new methodology (NM)- this paper establishes new lines of indigence and poverty for the period 2002-2015; these demonstrate that the official numbers discounted approximately seven million poor in 2015.
