The problem of poverty is global in scope and has devastating
consequences for many essential aspects of life: health, education,
political participation, autonomy, and psychological well-being.
The Routledge Handbook of Philosophy and Poverty presents the
current state of philosophical research on poverty in its breadth
and depth. It features 39 chapters divided into five thematic
sections: Concepts, theories and philosophical aspects of poverty
research Poverty in the history of Western philosophy and
philosophical traditions Poverty in non-Western philosophical
thought Key ethical concepts and poverty Social and political
issues The handbook not only addresses questions concerning
individual, collective, or institutional responsibility towards
people in extreme poverty and the moral wrong of poverty, but it
also tackles emerging applied issues that are connected to poverty
such as gender, race, education, migration, and climate change.
Additionally, it features perspectives on poverty from the history
of Western philosophy, as well as non-Western views that explore
issues unique to the Global South. Finally, the first section of
essays provides an overview of the most important aspects of social
science poverty research, which serves as an excellent resource for
philosophers and philosophy students unfamiliar with how poverty is
empirically researched in practice. The Routledge Handbook of
Philosophy and Poverty is an essential resource for students and
researchers in philosophy, political science, sociology,
development studies, and public policy who are working on poverty.
