What is comparative poverty?
Comparative poverty is a measure of poverty, which is also used as a measure of inequality. It refers to looking at poverty in comparison with others. For example, if you live in a country where there is a lot of inequality, where there are very rich people living in proximity to very poor people, it is argued, that the poor in countries like these are more aware of their poverty as they can compare it with the wealth of others living relatively close to them. At the same time, if you are poor in a country where most other people are poor, it is further argued, that you will not be as aware of your poverty as you are comparing yourself to other poor people. Therefore comparative poverty refers to what poor people can compare themselves with and how that affects their own perceptions of their poverty.
