Автор: Brady, David Название: Rich democracies, poor people ISBN: 0195385918 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780195385915 Издательство: Oxford Academ Рейтинг: Цена: 5384.00 р. Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ.
Описание: This book highlights that among affluent Western societies, there is immense cross-national and historical variation in poverty, and seeks to determine what makes poverty so entrenched in some affluent democracies when it is a solvable problem in others. Brady points out that where poverty is low, equality has been institutionalized, and that where poverty is widespread, there has been a failure to institutionalize equality. This book effectively tackles the issueof how this collective responsibility is conceived and institutionalized, by defining the mechanisms that shape this ideology, or prevent it from coming into being, thus taking a broad new approach towards eliminating poverty.
