Our objective of this paper is double: searching in economic theory about the divergence between concept of poverty and the regional dimension social inequality. This divergence may biases estimates of poverty rates. This largely depends on measurement tool and the use indicator target. We propose later to response for: if the problem is disruptive of an economic policy which aims to targeting the poor in regions parts. In addition, we dissect, theoretically the steps of measuring poverty and the poverty trend in recent years in the developing world and we are developing a regional approach to the training levels of the poor.
