L'apport des analyses longitudinales dans la connaissance des phénomènes de pauvreté et d'exclusion sociale : un survey de la littérature étrangère

French academic research has recently shown a growing interest in dynamic poverty analysis, whereas in many other developed countries longitudinal approaches have been the core of an abundant literature for decades. This review of international literature aims to contribute to the reflection on the necessity and the means to develop our dynamic knowledge of poverty and social exclusion. We discuss the main issues that emerge from our survey of recent international studies in Europe and North America in terms of analytical tools and political recommendations.
