Abstract

Se analiza la pobreza multidimensional desde la perspectiva del mercado laboral, considerando las 32 entidades federativas de México durante el periodo 2010-2016. Se estima un micropanel con efectos aleatorios y se encuentra que la población desocupada, el empleo informal y el nivel de precios tienen un efecto directo y significativo sobre la pobreza multidimensional. Se encuentra, además, que un deterioro en la capacidad de la economía para generar empleos formales detona la pobreza y produce un crecimiento de la informalidad acompanado de salarios bajos y desprotección social. La inflación opera en contra de la pobreza y produce un deterioro de los salarios reales. ***** Multidimensional poverty is analyzed from the perspective of the labor market, considering the 32 states of Mexico during the period 2010-2016. A micro-panel with random effects is estimated, and it is found that the unemployed population, informal employment and price levels have a direct and significant effect on multidimensional poverty. It is also found that a deterioration in the capacity of the economy to generate formal jobs detonates poverty and produces, as well as a growth of informality accompanied by low wages and social deprivation. Inflation operates against poverty and produces a deterioration of real wages
