| Summary |
The authors of this book, development economists and leading practitioners of development policy, address fundamental and current issues of poverty in developing countries. Twenty percent of the world’s population currently lives in absolute poverty, with a significant portion far below the poverty line. The authors examine the extent, development, causes, and effects of poverty in these countries. They also discuss the role of economic and social policy, particularly international development policy, in combating poverty. |
