For one, it is widely acknowledged that poverty should be defined in different dimensions, and aside from income, the accesses to basic social and financial rights are supposed to be taken into account. For another, an absolute income level cannot apply appropriately  to all the global societies because of the significant difference of purchase power with same currency among different societies.]]> 2021-01-25 10:01:04 UTC https://padlet.com/usictech/9luo5p6a98gzvjty/wish/1121123997 Because poverty is a complicated word to give a definition, it's not only related to income.

For example, most people in prison have no income, but they still have the necessities of life, and they are not under poverty. However, in Africa, people in Africa do make money, but they still cant afford the necessities for life, also sometimes poverty is a multidimensional word, when you talk about poverty, it depends on who and how you are going to compare. qwang98 https://padlet.com/usictech/9luo5p6a98gzvjty/wish/1122843311 2021-01-25 16:37:44 UTC https://padlet.com/usictech/9luo5p6a98gzvjty/wish/1122843311 Xikun Xu (Tracy) https://padlet.com/usictech/9luo5p6a98gzvjty/wish/1122923296 Because poverty is defined in terms of many aspects, such as education, health care and others and not only about incomes.
For example, It maybe cannot define poor that in particular area the income of people is low but education and medical treatment in this country is free.

The definition of poverty is designed to be more than income levels, such as civil rights, health care and education]]> 2021-01-26 01:44:05 UTC https://padlet.com/usictech/9luo5p6a98gzvjty/wish/1124738948 This is because poverty can not be defined by only income ,for instance people who earn 100$ per month in some least-developed counry generalized as middle class while that income just poor people's salaries in developed country. we should according to different society sitiuation such as some Nordic country they have a great society system ,habitat who live there can acquire free education ,health care as well as subsidy ,so the world bank's deftion is too one-sided. https://padlet.com/usictech/9luo5p6a98gzvjty/wish/1131821123 2021-01-27 14:39:26 UTC https://padlet.com/usictech/9luo5p6a98gzvjty/wish/1131821123 I think poverty can not be defined from only one way. W should consider a question from any way, such as government support , subjective background and international finance background. It is means that poverty is a general problem in every countries. Not only the world bank and states are reasonable for this, every single people should concentrate on this issue. jdong212 https://padlet.com/usictech/9luo5p6a98gzvjty/wish/1134561087 2021-01-28 03:41:04 UTC https://padlet.com/usictech/9luo5p6a98gzvjty/wish/1134561087 Chan Liu ChanLiu https://padlet.com/usictech/9luo5p6a98gzvjty/wish/1134600729 In my opinion, the World Bank's view is one-sided. There are many factors that lead to poverty. For example, the climate will affect farmers' harvest and determine whether farmers' income is more or less. Then, if the income is low, it may lead to poverty.]]> 2021-01-28 04:07:42 UTC https://padlet.com/usictech/9luo5p6a98gzvjty/wish/1134600729 Chao Xue cxue9 https://padlet.com/usictech/9luo5p6a98gzvjty/wish/1139148777 Because I think the view from the World Bank is inequitable and one-sided. There are two aspects. For the nation, the economic development of some countries is not good because of the influence of war, technological development, a natural environment that isn't conducive to ecnomic development, etc. So people who live in different countries have different income.

Defining crime can help us understand the original motive of the crime and further prevent the occurrence of the crime.
For example, if a crime is defined as a commercial crime, then the police and researchers can analyze such cases and then provide protection and prevention programs to financial institutions to avoid the next crime of the same type. If the crime behaviour is an attack on a minor, the police may also conduct general publicity in the education of minors by studying such crime characteristic by classification to prevent the same crime from happening again.
