How do you recognize rich and poor?

Subjective observation:

  • By looking at houses, infrastructure (roads, etc.) and people's belongings.
  • On holiday, by looking at photographs or watching documentaries.
  • This could lead to wrong conclusions.


Objective data:

  • Development indicators.

Slide 11 - Diapositive

Rich and poor on different scales
  • Global scale level: Rich and poor countries (North - South division).
  • National scale level: Cities and countryside (regions).                        
  • Regional disparities = Differences in the level of development between regions in one country.
  • Local scale level: City centre / rich neighbourhoods and informal cities. People move from the countryside to the city = rural-urban migration.
  • 'Slum' has a negative connotation, just like 'Third world country'. We therefore use the word informal city (= poor neighbourhood in a city).
