This response to Stein Ringen's paper recognises the importance of his recent work and the validity of some of the criticisms he makes of poverty studies, but argues that his own approach suffers from some of the same defects. He dismisses this research too hastily, partly because he has neglected some of the best of it. Drawing on these sources, this paper formulates with their help a more rigorous presentation of the relative concept of poverty and the analytical steps which should be taken by those using this concept.
