Immigrant Child Poverty in Europe

Chapter 2 in Poverty Among Immigrant Children in Europe, 2009, pp 24-48 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Why should one be concerned with child poverty rather than with poverty in general? After all, child poverty is derived from poverty of families and heads of households in which poor children live. But highlighting children is important as they are the future of nations. Moreover, as we discussed in Chapter 1, it is unfair and unacceptable to leave child poverty unaddressed properly in the midst of overall prosperity in Europe.
