The empirical evidence why people remain poor and the poverty reduction strategies discussed in this book squarely address popular themes that cut across national and international development agendas, as well as the nebulous and chronic question of poverty: its causes, consequences and ways of elimination. More "tools" in the toolbox for poverty reduction have been added as the author recognizes that misery is a condition predominantly and socially manufactured by human beings. Why Poor People Remain Poor: Key Elements for Poverty Alleviation and Sustainable Development is not a "how-to" manual but a prognosis of over 20 years of research on the circumstances that make and keep people poor. It is conceived as a roadmap for explaining, understanding and implementing strategies that will remove or reduce poverty in human societies. The book is addressed to students of development, researchers, scientists, policy makers, politicians and practitioners in the African continent and other emerging nations.
