More about the book
The book critiques the World Bank's approach to poverty alleviation, highlighting the failure of economic growth strategies promised by Robert McNamara. Instead of reducing poverty, child poverty and homelessness have surged. Glynn Cochrane, an anthropologist and former World Bank Advisor, advocates for a shift from distant management to personal engagement with the impoverished. He emphasizes that helpers equipped with local and cultural knowledge, along with insights from anthropological fieldwork, are essential for effective poverty alleviation.
