Poverty, Agency, and Human Rights collects thirteen new essays that
analyze how human agency relates to poverty and human rights
respectively as well as how agency mediates issues concerning
poverty and social and economic human rights. No other collection
of philosophical papers focuses on the diverse ways poverty impacts
the agency of the poor, the reasons why poverty alleviation schemes
should also promote the agency of beneficiaries, and the fitness of
the human rights regime to secure both economic development and
free agency. The book is divided into four parts. Part 1 considers
the diverse meanings of poverty both from the standpoint of the
poor and from that of the relatively well-off. Part 2 examines
morally appropriate responses to poverty on the part of persons who
are better-off and powerful institutions. Part 3 identifies
economic development strategies that secure the agency of the
beneficiaries. Part 4 addresses the constraints poverty imposes on
agency in the context of biomedical research, migration for work,
and trafficking in persons.
