Abstract: This paper presents a descriptive analysis of poverty in Romania during the period 2007-2013. Combating poverty and social exclusion involves identifying the most vulnerable individuals or groups, which is why we will try to build a profile of poverty, outlining the population groups most affected by poverty, based on the following statement: under certain conditions, any person, regardless of her/his particular situation, may become poor for a longer or shorter time. For some people, however, the risk of being “trapped” by poverty is always greater and almost inevitable. We shall use the descriptive analysis as research methodology. The variable analyzed is the relative poverty rate: a. by regions; b. by type of households; c. by age group; d. by employment status and correlation variable: the unemployment rate.
