He explores the mechanisms that perpetuate poverty, questions the conventional measures of poverty, and critiques the way wealth and poverty are defined and understood globally.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book is a call for a radical rethinking—not just about poverty, but about the way we live and relate to the world's resources. It emphasizes the importance of self-reliance and challenges the notion that wealth accumulation is the answer to the world’s problems. A must-read for anyone interested in understanding the complexities of global poverty and the urgent need for systemic change.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rawat Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50034638258480,"sku":"DRG.RawatPublications_8170339383","price":91.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/9968\/4144\/files\/8170339383.jpg?v=1756392052","url":"https:\/\/www.retailmaharaj.com\/products\/the-no-nonsense-guide-to-world-poverty","provider":"Retail Maharaj","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
