  abstract = 	{In this chapter from the book 'Mongolia in Transition,' Odgaard tries to assess the degree of poverty Mongolia has fallen into in the post-socialist era. He examines the collapse of Mongolia's social service sector after Soviet Union subsidies were abolished in 1990. General unemployment and poverty have increased, especially in rural areas. To gage poverty, Odgaard looks at GDP estimates, household surveys, and opinion polls. For urban areas he examines wages, pensions, unemployment, number of orphans. For rural areas he examines household composition and income, and distribution of livestock. Health, education, the collapse of the welfare system, and rise of traditional networks of exchange and mutual assistant are also discussed.},
