摘要：In spite of the fact that there is some lucidity within the field of poverty with respect to the concept, measurements, causes, and the way forward, those exterior to the field are confronted with an apparently complex poverty literature, overlapping terminology, and several published measures. Therefore, the objective of this review was to give an overview of concepts, measurements, causes and the way forward on poverty. A systematic literature review was performed by searching websites, and electronic databases from January 2000 to September 2020, and the selected articles were then analyzed thematically. Twenty research articles, and 23 website articles were incorporated in the analysis. In the current paper authors try to develop a guidance to the academicians and policy makers who are looking to use poverty in their work. Further, it gives an outline of the various conceptualizations of poverty, and afterward give a set of recommendations for researchers, and practitioners with respect to the most appropriate measures of poverty for a scope of various purposes, and policy implications for the way forward the poverty.
