Reconsidering Culture and Poverty

Viac o knihe

Recent research has revitalized the exploration of culture's influence on poverty, with sociologists, demographers, and economists examining how cultural factors shape the behaviors of low-income populations. Unlike earlier views that suggested culture could perpetuate poverty independently of structural changes, contemporary scholars offer a more nuanced understanding. This volume presents insightful articles that connect poverty and culture scholarship, making it essential for sociologists and social science researchers seeking to understand these evolving dynamics.
