| Sumario: | Recently, and especially from Amartya Sen's capacity and functioning approach, poverty measurements taking into account only one dimension of well-being such as income have been questioned, and, increasing importance has been given to the measurement of poverty from a multidimensional perspective. The proposed LIMTIP time and income poverty measure takes invisible unpaid work as a starting point to establish a threshold of time requirements. If household income reaches to compensate for the value of these time deficits, then they will be poor in time but not in adjusted income. If income is not enough to buy substitutes for this time deficit, then the people and households in which they live will be poor in time and income. The measure of income and time poverty LIMTIP corrects measures of absolute poverty to which we are accustomed to make them more faithful to their assumptions. This work incorporates the temporal dimension to the poverty measurement using the LIMTIP methodology on data from the “Encuesta de uso de tiempo y voluntariado” (Time Use Survey and Volunteering) carried out in the city of Rosario in 2010. |
