Urban poverty,more than ever, has become a pervasive reality and
mind boggling task for developing countries. Its persistence and
rise,among others,is attributed to the understanding gap that it is
intricate, rapid urbanization, weak urban management practices, and
rural biased interventions. This book brings an empirical study on
determinants of urban poverty in Debre Markos one of the old towns
of Ethiopia. The book is unique, at least, in two respects. First,
it uncovers poverty in a medium town which little study has been
made so far. Second, unlike the common national poverty studies
made elsewhere, it examines household poverty covering a wide range
of demographic, socioeconomic, and household utilities as
explanatory variables or otherwise determinants. The book, in this
vein, is vital for policy makers engaged in urban poverty reduction
in Ethiopia and can be used as a reference material for other
countries which have the interest to involve in and apply on
poverty alleviation programs. Students at higher institutions
dealing with poverty would also use and consultants &
researchers, who have the curiosity in the urban sector, would find
it valuable to poverty projects.
