Encountering Poverty challenges mainstream frameworks of global
poverty by going beyond the claims that poverty is a problem that
can be solved through economic resources or technological
interventions. By focusing on the power and privilege that underpin
persistent impoverishment and using tools of critical analysis and
pedagogy, the authors explore the opportunities for and limits of
poverty action in the current moment. Encountering Poverty invites
students, educators, activists, and development professionals to
think about and act against inequality by foregrounding, rather
than sidestepping, the long history of development and the ethical
dilemmas of poverty action today.
