URIBE MALLARINO, Consuelo  and  JARAMILLO MARIN, Jefferson. The boundaries of poverty in Bogota. Perf. latinoam. [online]. 2016, vol.24, n.48, pp.243-264. ISSN 0188-7653.  https://doi.org/10.18504/pl2448-010-2016.

The article proposes an analytical perspective on poverty with a multidimensional approach, not only as an aggregate of variables and indicators, but also using a probing strategy that considers the way in which it is perceived between the groups receiving programs to alleviate poverty or use subsidized public services, and those without. Based on tools for quantitative and qualitative analysis applied to data collected on a sample of residents of Bogota, the authors analyze how the boundaries of sense on poverty are related to both objective and subjective factors related to being or not users of these programs, socioeconomic and educational conditions, as well as political participation, degree of association and use of mechanisms to enforce civil rights.

Keywords : Multidimensional poverty; poverty frontiers; subjective poverty; social representations; social stratification; Bogota.
