The Creation of Wealth and Poverty - Hassan Bougrine - Bog

This book studies the means and ways by which wealth and poverty are created in both developed and developing countries, confronting the role played by economic policy in shaping the stratification of modern societies. It is concerned with the social effects of the ongoing crisis in finance, development and the environment. Particularly it seeks to draw an understanding of how policy makers tackle issues of job creation, poverty and environmental degradation. By focusing on the political, legal and financial institutions that govern society and the economy, this book provides an analysis of wealth and poverty from a historical perspective.
