Description: | Select Guide Rating Aiming to help overcome difficulties arising from the lack of an agreed vocabulary, this reference work is useful for researchers, students and policy makers working in a variety of disciplines. This second edition of this highly-successful glossary provides an exhaustive and authoritative guide to over 200 technical terms used in contemporary scholarly research on poverty. It seeks to make researchers, students and policy makers aware of the multi-dimensional and complex nature of this social condition. This revised edition includes a range of new entries to keep pace with an expanding field of discourse, an extended set of references, and further perspectives from developing countries. A particular effort has been made to incorporate non-Western approaches and concepts. |
