Abstract

En este artículo se presenta una propuesta de un indicador de vulnerabilidad social, utilizando datos de la Encuesta de Condiciones de Vida del año 2001. En base al enfoque AVEO (activos, vulnerabilidad y estructura de oportunidades), se estudian diferentes dimensiones de la vulnerabilidad: demográfica, hábitat, capital humano, trabajo, protección social y capital social. Con una metodología estadística basada en la regresión logística, se selecciona una variable representativa de cada una de las dimensiones mencionadas, para luego combinarlas en un indicador único, denominado Índice de Vulnerabilidad Social (IVS). Finalmente, se caracteriza a los distintos grupos de hogares definidos por el IVS. / This paper presents a proposal for an indicator of social vulnerability, using data from a Survey on Life Conditions in year 2001. Based on the AVEO approach (assets, vulnerability and structure of opportunities), different dimensions of ulnerability are studied: demographic, environmental, human capital, job, social protection and social capital. With a statistical methodology based on logistic regression, one variable is selected as representative of each dimension, which are then combined in a single indicator, called Vulnerability Social Index. Finally, different groups of households defined by this index are characterized.
