Description

Routledge's comprehensive examination of urban poverty across the Global South reveals why one in seven of the world's population live in poverty in cities, predominantly in overcrowded informal settlements lacking adequate water, sanitation, healthcare and educational facilities. This book challenges conventional understanding by demonstrating how governments and international agencies systematically underestimate both the scale and depth of urban poverty. The authors investigate the critical paradox of economically successful nations that fail to reduce poverty levels, questioning whether growth alone delivers meaningful improvement for disadvantaged populations. Through rigorous analysis, the work explores the complex factors perpetuating poverty in urban centres and examines why standard measurements often obscure the true extent of deprivation affecting vulnerable communities worldwide.
