    Abstract

    There is an increasing consensus that the identification and measurement of poverty using a single income measure fails to capture the complexity of poverty. This was particularly true in Ireland in periods of bust and boom, when relative income poverty measures were unable to reflect the changes in standard of living. Such limits highlight the need to develop a multidimensional approach. This requires developing criteria relating to choice of dimensions and the manner in which they should be combined.
