✦ Synopsis

Abstract

The current anti‐poverty wave, beginning in the 1990s, has not been deeply influenced by the processes which caused underdevelopment in the past. This is a pity, because historical awareness can help define the processes and institutions which have caused poverty in the past, and provide ideas from the past which can inspire present‐day policy. The essays in this volume all use primary source materials to open up pathways towards the better understanding of present‐day poverty dynamics in the developing world.
