However, the bigger question is the rather more "dynamic" question of how poverty and inequality rates have evolved over time. In this sense, understand that the official poverty line by the Planning Minister takes into account international standards, and its purpose is to facilitate comparison over time, Esteban Szmulewiczhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08069893714562241863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5877791659645039526.post-39175306136996897192010-03-01T20:28:30.448+00:002010-03-01T20:28:30.448+00:00Completely agree, though 'exclusion' many ...Completely agree, though 'exclusion' many times is consequence of 'segregation'; spatial in case of urbanity, territorial in terms of rurality. Just wanted to rise the point, that education, health, labour, might be spatial problems as well as econmic or political ones. :)<br /><br />http://www.sstc.ucl.ac.uk/<br />http://eprints.ucl.ac.uk/3445/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5877791659645039526.post-32470056984001308972010-03-01T15:06:00.348+00:002010-03-01T15:06:00.348+00:00Thanks Alejandra,
You are definitely right about...Thanks Alejandra, <br /><br />You are definitely right about social segregation. Though I consider here "social exclusion" as a comprehensive term that includes spacial exclusion (urban segregation)as well as labor market exclusion, education exclusion, health exclusion, and so on. The key idea is to avoid social policies that are based in discretionary thresholds (poverty lines), and Felipe I.

This distinction is relevant since this problem particularly in Chile seems to be a 'spatial' one, either in urban or rural areas. That is why yesterday 'poor' people was affected while the 'privileged' were having bbq. Thank you forAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
