Abstract

Este trabajo analiza la dinámica de la pobreza en España identificando distintos perfiles en función de su duración temporal. Los resultados indican que la pobreza en España exhibe dos características importantes: un reducido número de individuos persistentemente pobres y un elevado nivel de recurrencia en la pobreza transitoria. Por eso en el caso español, y en contraste con otros países de la Unión Europea, resulta particularmente relevante distinguir entre los pobres transitorios que experimentan diferentes episodios de pobreza de forma recurrente de los que lo sufren una sola vez. La caracterización de las tipologías nos permite concluir también que la pobreza crónica afecta más a los hogares cuyo sustentador es de mayor edad o con bajo nivel de cualificación, así como a los que tienen un menor número de miembros asalariados. La pobreza transitoria y recurrente en cambio aparece ligada al empleo por cuenta propia y a la presencia de niños en el hogar.
