Focusing on the concept of multidimensional poverty, this book presents a comprehensive analysis of deprivation in the United States, emphasizing the importance of the Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI) over traditional income-based measures. It documents poverty patterns across demographics and geographies, explores the impact of the Affordable Care Act, and compares native and immigrant experiences. Empirical studies reveal key determinants of poverty and individual deprivation. The concluding chapters discuss counterfactual scenarios and their policy implications, offering insights for welfare-enhancing public strategies.
