“…The concept is distinguished by the richness of conceptual possibilities (Nussbaum and Sen, 1993): what is implied by QOL varies depending on the concept's operationalization (Alborz, 2017). Moreover, the exact definition of the concept and the way it is used depends on research objectives and contextual factors (Kapuria, 2014). Several researchers investigated QOL issues related to disadvantaged and marginalized consumers (Carter, 1996;Hill and Dhanda, 1999;Love and Crompton, 1999;Bearden and Wilder, 2007;Ekici and Peterson, 2009;Nguyen and Nguyen, 2012;Sandikci et al, 2016;Backer and Weiler, 2018).…”

© 2020 American Council on Consumer Interests In the poverty-ridden settings in neo-liberal India, we explore how subsistence consumers construct their quality-of-life (QOL). Drawing on the concepts of chronotope and futurization, we posit two additional dimensions of subsistence consumers' construction of QOL namely, chronotopefication and futurization. Our findings suggest that chronotopefication and futurization are defining processes of subsistence consumers' construction of QOL perceptions; their sacrifices, efforts, and costs, however painful they may be, would be perceived as QOL enhancing from the prism of chronotopefication and futurization; and subsistence consumers chronotopize and futurize QOL for the whole extended household within the intergenerational temporal space by focusing on stable input–outcome pathways. Based on the evidence, we propose QOL as chronotopefication and futurization framework (QOL-CFF). The framework suggests that subsistence consumers construct QOL as chronotope building, futurized and having a symbolic effect. They consider current agonies as a foundation for future building.

“…This kind of weighting can be interpreted as 'objective measures of the subjective feelings of deprivation' (Desai and Shah 1988). It is used in MD studies (Bárcena-Martín et al 2014;Busetta et al 2016) as well as in other research (Kapuria 2014).…”

The study applies the fuzzy approach to measuring material deprivation from a multidimensional perspective. By taking into account the intensity of deprivation this approach goes beyond the conventional research using the deprived/non-deprived dichotomy. The study is based on the European Union Statistics on Income and Living Conditions data including a set of nine-item material deprivation indicators adopted by all European Union countries. In order to examine the effects of social reforms introduced by the Polish government in 2016, it focuses on the situation of Polish households in 2015 and 2017. The study aims to identify correlates of material deprivation in Poland using the zero-inflated beta regression model. This model enables to understand the mechanisms behind the risk and the intensity of material deprivation. Moreover, the study provides evidence that households with at least three children experienced meaningful improvement during the studied period. This is probably due to the introduction of the ‘Family 500+’ programme supporting mainly large families.
