Zusammenfassung: 
This paper culminates the work undertaken in a larger study on income and labor force status commissioned by USAID in 1995. It explores populations at risk in Eastern Europe, and attempts to address three questions: Who are the poor? How much protection do these people receive from the social safety net? And How much might have to be spent to change their economic status? More specifically, a theoretical model linking the incidence of poverty to unemployment and/or being out of the labor force is posited and estimated using the logistic regression. The estimates are conditioned on the presence of other known poverty related variables which enter in both confounding and effect modifying capacities. Results from this exercise feed into a quantitative policy assessment of the adequacy of current welfare programs for those populations identified by the model as being at risk.
