Abstract
The article presents the results of a research about understanding of the poverty (ideas and theories) in a group of school boys and girls from 7 to 12 years living in lower socioeconomic status. It was shown that children handle a conceptualization that goes from a daily’s concrete notion to a more reflexive and abstract one (froman individualistic conception of poverty to build a more collectivist and relational definition). Also, their theories about the origin of poverty have individualistic features till they also take elements of social structural order.
