Abstract: Vulnerability has received extensive attention in the field of poverty research because of its predictive and prospective value in risk management. Individuals, families, risk extension and sustainable livelihood are the main dimensions of studies on poverty vulnerability. However, due to the tendency of different dimensions, there lacks a framework for explaining poverty from vulnerability and summarizing the process of poverty generation and poverty reduction. Resilience, which coexists with the concept of vulnerability and poverty, was introduced, and the vulnerability factors of individuals, farmer households, the government and the society were combed based on the existing representative framework. Moreover, according to the resistance acts of each aspect, a more comprehensive analytical framework of poor farmers was reconstructed so as to expand the thinking of the work on poverty reduction.

Key words: poverty, vulnerability, resilience, risk, sustainable livelihood
