Business Strategy and Poverty Alleviation

Alan Singer ()

Journal of Business Ethics, 2006, vol. 66, issue 2, 225-231

Abstract: Currently, entrepreneurs and corporations overwhelmingly do not view the alleviation of global poverty as a strategic priority. Yet business activity can have a negative as well as a positive effect on each distinctive form of poverty. In order to reduce poverty, entrepreneurs have to find ways of limiting the negative aspects. This might be achieved by deliberately augmenting strategies so that they can achieve a synthesis, in partnership with governments and NGO’s. Copyright Springer 2006
