This volume brings together multidisciplinary perspectives on poor people’s mobility. It is a dynamic approach that will add to understanding of how and why people move into and out of poverty. The contributors’ findings about mobility patterns, factors, and processes, are rich, insightful and important. The chapters draw on the latest longitudinal micro data in order to present a moving picture of poverty that is somewhat different from what can be seen in single snapshots - the staple of traditional poverty analysis
