Beschreibung
In this book Edward and Sumner argue that to better understand the impact of global growth on poverty it is necessary to consider what happens across a wide range of poverty lines. Starting with the same datasets used to produce official estimates of global poverty, they create a model of global consumption that spans the entire world¿s population. They go on to demonstrate how their model can be utilised to understand how different poverty lines imply very different visions of how the global economy needs to work in order for poverty to be eradicated.

Zusammenfassung

Develops a global perspective on the interaction of growth, poverty and inequality in order to bring greater clarity to the understanding of global poverty

Argues counter-intuitively that it is not a lack of growth that is the cause of the persistence of global poverty

It is the efficiency by which that consumption growth has been translated into poverty reduction which is of significance

Draws attention to the way approaches to understanding data on poverty and inequality has a very significant impact on the narratives and policies that develop from the data
