Definition(s)

  • ECONOMIC DEPRIVATION—a lack of financial re-sources—is the basis by which most define poverty. But how can poverty be measured in cultures that circulate no money? Poverty figures are unavailable for the nation of Somalia since it has no government and no official currency. [Source: Encyclopedia of World Poverty; Basic Security]
