THE INFLUENCE OF SOCIAL SCIENCE THEORIES ON THE CONCEPTUALIZATION OF POVERTY IN SOCIAL WELFARE
Poverty has been a widely explored issue that has been debated across many social science academic disciplines. Due to its multidimensional nature, different interpretations of the causes of poverty have been put forth. This analysis examines the theories of poverty from five social science disciplines: psychology, anthropology, sociology, economics, and political science. While some of these ideas have evolved since they were originally conceived, these theories have significantly contributed to the conceptualization of poverty in social welfare. Since social welfare does not have a common theory of poverty, future directions should involve an attempt to develop a unifying theory of poverty for clarification on shared discussions because of its impact all areas in the field of social welfare and social work practice.
