- Abstract
The article provides a response to Martin Ravallion's paper in the June 2011 issue of the "Journal of Economic Inequality" about indices of development. Ravallion criticizes that the authors' work is not credible to contend that any single index could capture all that matters in all settings. He criticizes that aggregation should be conducted in attainment. The authors believe that their methodology for measuring multidimensional poverty can augment the tools for poverty analysis.
