Abstract

Cette recherche étend l’approche de Dagum C. et Costa M. [“Analysis and Measurement of Poverty. Univariate and Multivariate Approaches and their Policy Implications. A case of Study: Italy”, dans Dagum C. et Ferrari G. (ed.), Household Behaviour, Equivalence Scales, Welfare and Poverty, Springer Verlag, Germany, p. 221-271, 2004]. Nous développons un modèle multidimensionnel de pauvreté en introduisant une analyse de décomposition synthétique mettant en exergue les dimensions (santé, éducation, etc.) et les groupes (sexe, région, religion, etc.) qui contribuent à accroître le montant de la pauvreté totale. Nous appliquons les décompositions afin d’étudier le niveau de la pauvreté qui règne au Sénégal en 1994-1995. Les résultats mis en évidence permettent aux décideurs de mettre en place des politiques socio-économiques autorisant la réduction de l’intensité de la pauvreté.
