ABSTRACT

This handbook initiates fresh debates on poverty and its impact in a constantly
changing Global South society. It studies the concept, theories, and causes of
poverty, as well as the design and delivery of social welfare policies related
to specific groups, such as women, children, and the elderly. The chapters are
theoretical, evidence-based, and empirical in nature and bring together a
holistic understanding of social problems and issues in developing countries.
The volume brings together researchers, educators, and practitioners from across
the globe to develop a hands-on reference work that will be requisite for
several social science disciplines concerned with poverty and the welfare of
poor people.

The first of its kind, the handbook will be indispensable for scholars and
researchers of development studies, economics, social work, political studies,
poverty studies, population and demographic studies, sociology, social
anthropology, public policy, and political economy, especially those concerned
with the Global South.
