The Poverty of Growth by Olivier De Schutter Paperback Book

Description: The Poverty of Growth by Olivier De Schutter, Kate Raworth Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description An accessible, jargon-free manifesto for how to achieve prosperity without growth Publisher Description How do we combat poverty and rising inequality? In our age of impending climate catastrophe, the conventional wisdom around GDP and economic growth is no longer fit for purpose; a rising tide sinks all boats.Olivier De Schutter argues that we must rethink the fight against poverty. The quest for economic growth not only clashes with the need to remain within planetary boundaries, but in fact creates the very social exclusion it is intended to cure: deteriorating human rights, widening the gap between the richest and the poorest, and merely modernising poverty without eliminating it.The Poverty of Growth makes a clarion call to social movements, trade unions and environmental NGOs alike to forge a new pathway towards a post-growth development, and a narrative of progress that is no longer orientated around wealth and profit. Author Biography Olivier De Schutter is the United Nations Special Rapporteur on extreme poverty and human rights.
