This collection offers a timely reassessment of viable ways of
addressing poverty across the globe today. The profile of global
poverty has changed dramatically over the past decade, and around
three-quarters of the poor now live in middle income countries,
making inequality a major issue. This requires us to fundamentally
rethink anti-poverty strategies and policies, as many aspects of
the established framework for poverty reduction are no longer
effective. Featuring contributions from Latin America, Africa and
Asia, this much-needed collection answers some of the key questions
arising as development policy confronts the challenges of poverty
and inequality on the global, national and local scale in both
urban and rural contexts. Providing poverty researchers and
practitioners with valuable new tools to address new forms of
poverty in the right way, Poverty and Inequality in Middle Income
Countries shows how a radical switch from aid to
redistribution-based social policies is needed to combat new forms
of global poverty.
