Child poverty is a central and present part of global life, with
hundreds of millions of children around the world enduring
tremendous suffering and deprivation of their most basic needs.
Despite its long history, research on poverty and development has
only relatively recently examined the issue of child poverty as a
distinct topic of concern. This book brings together theoretical,
methodological and policy-relevant contributions by leading
researchers on international child poverty. With a preface from Sir
Richard Jolly, Former Assistant Secretary General of the United
Nations, it examines how child poverty and well-being are now
conceptualized, defined and measured, and presents regional and
national level portraits of child poverty around the world, in
rich, middle income and poor countries. The book's ultimate
objective is to promote and influence policy, action and the
research agenda to address one of the world's great ongoing
tragedies: child poverty, marginalization and inequality.
