Up-to-date and Close-up look at Global Inquality.
I will assign this book to my senior-level World Affairs class. It gives a timely and close-up look at both the structural causes of poverty and its human consequences. Jan Knippers Black integrates graphic detail with descriptions of larger trends. She has a good conceptual grasp of global trends and is not shy about directly linking poverty to the policies of corporations, national governments, and international financial institutions. Inequality in the Global Village is well written and organized in a way that will appeal to caring citizens.
