Abstract
This compilation brings together the proceedings of
a workshop on “Qualitative and Quantitative Poverty
Appraisal: Complementarities, Tensions and the Way Forward.”
Contributors were asked to submit short summaries of
their positions, with detailed references to the literature
as necessary. The compilation represents a remarkable
statement of the state of the art and the debate on
“Qual-Quant”, at a time when the complementarities
between the qualitative and the quantitative traditions
in poverty analysis are being recognized, but the tensions
are ever present, and analysts and policy makers are
looking for a way forward in using the two approaches
to design effective poverty reduction strategies.
