Описание: This volume examines the persistence of poverty - both rural and urban - in developing countries, and the response of local governments to the problem, exploring the roles of governments, NGOs, and CSOs in national and sub-national agenda-setting, policy-making, and poverty-reduction strategies.
Описание: This book will explore case studies of child poverty in a range of countries, including those that are highly industrialized; those that are considered to be middle-income countries; and the least developed countries. Throughout, the book will highlight the similarities of experience, which call for an international and coordinated response. At the same time, the book will also highlight the localized experiences of child poverty which may vary greatly. The implication is that international efforts have to be complemented with more localized approaches that are contextualized. Additionally, the book will critically examine some of the policy formulations that are designed to deal with the problem of child poverty. However, this critique will be done in such a way as to highlight the possibilities, limitations, and suggestions for improvement concerning policies that are designed to alleviate or eliminate child poverty.This book will explore case studies of child poverty in a range of countries, including those that are highly industrialized; those that are considered to be middle-income countries; and the least developed countries.
