Paperback. Condizione: Good. In our rapidly globalizing age with economic growth occurring in almost every corner of the world, it is easy to forget that more than one billion people still live on less than one dollar a day. Poverty is the worst human-rights crisis in the world today, denying billions of people their most basic rights. In a bracing argument enriched by compelling photographs from across the world, Amnesty International Secretary General Irene Khan makes the case that poverty remains a global epidemic because we continue to define it as an economic problem whose only solution is foreign aid and investment. Khan calls for a reevaluation of this longstanding assumption and turns us toward confronting poverty as a human-rights violation. Empowering the poor with basic rights of security is our only chance for eradicating poverty and giving freedom and dignity to those who have never experienced it.…

"IRENE argumenta de forma convincente que el situar los derechos humanos en el foco de la lucha para la erradicación de la pobreza nos ayudará a lograr esa meta. " Kofi Annan, ex secretario general de Naciones Unidas, prólogo de esta edición "La pobreza constituye la peor crisis mundial de derechos humanos y este libro plantea de un modo contundente no solo por qué debemos cambiar las cosas, sino también cómo podemos hacerlo. " Mary Robinson, ex presidenta de Irlanda y alta comisionada de la ONU para los derechos humanos "Lectura obligada para quien pretenda verdaderamente acabar con la pobreza: KHAN defi ende que ninguna solución funcionará a menos que empodere a los pobres del planeta para que tracen su propio futuro. " Hernando de Soto, miembro de la Comisión para el Empoderamiento Legal de los Pobres "Una crítica bien argumentada del pensamiento dominante sobre el desarrollo y la pobreza. El lenguaje evita la jerga académica, sin dejar de ser conceptualmente riguroso y preciso. " Sakiko Fukuda Parr, catedrática de Asuntos Internacionales en The New School A pesar del crecimiento económico que ha tenido lugar prácticamente en cada rincón del mundo durante la última década, millones de seres humanos viven todavía en la pobreza. IRENE KHAN afi rma que los análisis económicos no proporcionan un retrato completo y que las soluciones económicas no pueden, por sí solas, acabar con el problema. Con un razonamiento persuasivo, que se nutre de sus experiencias personales y de casos reales documentados alrededor del globo, KHAN percibe la pobreza como la peor crisis mundial de derechos humanos porque atrapa a las personas en un círculo vicioso de privaciones, inseguridad, exclusión e imposibilidad para hacerse oír. Sostiene que el empoderamiento de los pobres constituye el principal desafío y llama urgente y apasionadamente a la acción para defender los derechos humanos en la lucha contra la pobreza. IRENE KHAN ha sido la primera mujer y la primera persona de origen asiático en ocupar el cargo de secretaria general de Amnistía Internacional. Ha recibido numerosos y prestigiosos premios por su liderazgo en el ámbito de los derechos humanos y su trabajo para acabar con la violencia contra las mujeres, incluido el Premio de la Paz de Sidney, en 2006. Vive entre Londres, Reino Unido, y Dacca, *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.
