Auteur :
MCCULLOCH, A.

Description :
The paper examines the impact of changes in local-labour market conditions on individual poverty exits and entrances. Transitions out of poverty and transitions into poverty are estimated by using discrete duration models. The relative contribution of labour market variables is smaller than individual and family characteristics in determining transitions out of and into poverty.
