An Inter-temporal and Spatial Analysis of data from the Census of Population, 1991, 1996, 2002 and 2006
Trutz Haase & Jonathan Pratschke, February 2008
The New Measures of Deprivation for the Republic of Ireland, are the latest deprivation figures drawing on the 2006 Census of Population. Building on the innovative approach to the construction of deprivation indices developed in previous research (Haase & Pratschke, 2005), the New Measures of Deprivation provide an up-to-date analysis of the changes in deprivation that have occurred in each local area over the past fifteen years.
The present analysis supersedes and replaces the previous analysis by Haase & Pratschke (2005), as all estimates are derived from a new matrix of observations covering all four census periods.
