| Abstract | This article focuses on the poor in Romania, a category that grew unprecedentedly in number and severity during the postcommunist transition. Based on data from the Romanian Integrated Household Survey (RIHS), we document growth in poverty over the 1995-98 period and investigate the contribution of various factors to household welfare. |
