Multidimensional poverty in the state of Bahia: a spatial analysis from the censuses of 2000 and 2010
Main Article Content
Abstract
The article aims to collaborate with the analysis about poverty in the state of Bahia, studying the spatial behavior of poverty in the state in 2000 and 2010, using the Municipal Poverty Index (MPI). The MPI allowed the creation of a ranking of municipalities, which in comparison with the ranking based on the Municipal Human Development Index (MHDI) in the same years analyzed, was effective for measuring the spatial poverty in the state. The study found evidence of a pattern of spatialization as well as the existence of clusters of regional poverty. It is a multidimensional study using variables such as income, education, housing and health.
