Global Poverty Reduction: A new social paradigm?

Francine Mestrum

Development, 2006, vol. 49, issue 2, 62-66

Abstract: Francine Mestrum1 looks at poverty reduction in relation to the major trends of the poverty reduction policies of international organizations. She presents an overview of economic and social development policies before 1990 together with a brief overview of structural adjustment policies and a critical analysis of the emergence and the conceptualization of poverty in the 1990. She concludes with a critical analysis of Poverty Reduction Strategy Papers (PRSPs) and the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) raising questions for the third world and for rich countries.
