Abstract

AbstractThe Argentinian case offers many examples of fragmented urban reality, whose deprivation might be fruitfully analysed by deprivation indicators, according to a current trend in literature. Non‐aggregative quantitative method based on the POSET theory offers an alternative approach that may steer clear of the shortcomings of the aggregative approaches. Through our analysis we intend to propose a picture of the Argentinian material and social deprivation. Since our approach does not establish any indicator and avoids absolute hierarchy among areas, it makes a rigorous tool available to public authorities. This allows them the rational choice about where and how intervene, to focus the political action at its best. Our analysis shows that social deprivation is characterized by high variability, which makes it less comparable than material deprivation. Moreover, 72% of the statistical units considered are socially deprived.
