His Poverty study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Consumption, Demographic economics, Agricultural economics and Distribution. His work on Urbanization as part of general Economic growth study is frequently connected to Public research, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them.

His research in the fields of Rural poverty overlaps with other disciplines such as Sustainability. As a part of the same scientific family, Michael Lipton mostly works in the field of Developing country, focusing on Land reform and, on occasion, Distribution and Economic system. His Private sector study, which is part of a larger body of work in Economic growth, is frequently linked to Public research, bridging the gap between disciplines.
