Publisher's Synopsis
The Causes of Poverty, written by McCarthy and Callaghan in 1908, is a comprehensive analysis of the various factors that contribute to poverty. The book examines the economic, social, and political conditions that lead to poverty, and provides a historical perspective on poverty in different societies. The authors argue that poverty is not simply the result of individual failings, but is rather a systemic issue that requires structural solutions. They discuss the impact of industrialization, urbanization, and the growth of capitalism on poverty, as well as the role of government policies in exacerbating or alleviating poverty. The book also explores the relationship between poverty and race, gender, and class, and highlights the ways in which discrimination and inequality contribute to poverty. Overall, The Causes of Poverty provides a thought-provoking and insightful analysis of one of the most pressing issues of our time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
