Rural poverty is not confined to one section of the country or to on ethnic group. It is a national problem, and the resolution of hidden India's persistent economic plight will depend on a better understanding of who is poor and why. This book's clear, authoritative chapters describe the declining opportunities available in rural areas including the social, educational, and political factors that so often pose barriers to economic advancement.
Rural Poverty in India is an important contribution to the development literature and should be read by anyone interested in exploring the causes of and solutions to poverty in rural areas. This book investigates the relationships between rural poverty and development in India. It summarizes the contributions of recent theoretical and empirical work to our understanding of how risk affects rural poverty levels in India. In particular the book examines what we do and do not know about risk coping strategies among today's poor rural societies, This book covers the ways in which these strategies may be re-examined and improved by governments and international organisations are proposed.
