Opis:
Researchers underline, that one of the characteristics of poverty, especially nowadays, is its different perception by men and women. This observation is result of changes in research approach to poverty, which focus now on differences between groups, not on poverty en block. As research shows, women are not only more at risk of entering the sphere of poverty, but also carry a heavier burden and larger responsibility for coping with it (living in poverty and exiting poverty). Such a situation is related to social definitions and images of proper/desired social practices that are attributed to women experiencing poverty. In this article, basing mostly on materials and analyses from the project “Discourses of poverty and social exclusion”, I intend to show how the role of women living in poverty is discoursively constructed, what is their image in society, what are the social expectations. I am focusing on the discourse created by the social actors who are responsible for supporting women in coping with poverty (representatives of social welfare centres and NGOs). Social actors opinions are important, because their image of women living in poverty is a base, to create programs and offerts.

Opis:
This study was carried out to estimate factors influencing the multidimensional poverty status of rural households in Ogun State, Nigeria. A multistage sampling technique was used to select 240 rural households. Data was obtained through the use of a structured interview schedule, and was analyzed with descriptive techniques, multidimensional poverty index and logistic regression models. The result revealed that 69% of the rural households are multidimensionally poor. It was found that (on average) the rural poor households were deprived in 41% of the weighted indicators. Another finding is that rural households were deprived in 28% of total deprivations they could experience. It was also revealed that deprivation in infrastructure contributed most to the total deprivation experienced, followed by deprivation in living standard, social capital, health and education. The study further found that household size (p < 0.05), gender (p < 0.01), off-farm income (p < 0.1), availability of community health extension workers (p < 0.05) and availability of public market (p < 0.1) significantly influence the poverty status of rural households. The study concluded that an increase in household size increases the likelihood of being multidimensionally poor while an increase in off-farm income, access to public market and health extension services reduce the likelihood of being poor. The study recommended that rural farmers diversify their livelihood sources into off-farm activities during their lean periods as this will be instrumental in reducing their poverty status. Also, infrastructural facilities such as good healthcare services and public markets should be put in place as this will go a long way in reducing the poverty status of the rural farmers.

Opis:
In Poland relatively more families live in economic poverty in rural areas, which is refl ected in the fact that in the years 2007–2013 the extreme and relative poverty risk as well as the national poverty threshold indices in rural areas were higher than in urban areas. The greatest differences in the mentioned poverty indices between rural and urban areas were revealed in the scope of the relative poverty. The fact that there is no evident decrease in the relative poverty index, particularly in rural areas, indicates persistent income inequalities. In comparison with the remaining household groups, the socioeconomic situation of farmers’ households was particularly diffi cult. Their extreme, national and relative poverty risk indices were one of the highest. Many negative tendencies that promote poverty accumulate in Poland’s rural areas. The most important of them include the high unemployment rate and a relatively low level of education among the rural population.
W Polsce relatywnie częściej w ubóstwie ekonomicznym egzystują rodziny, które mieszkają na wsi, o czym świadczy fakt, iż w latach 2007–2013 wartości wskaźników zagrożenia ubóstwem skrajnym, ustawowym i relatywnym na wsi były większe niż w miastach. Największa różnica w opisanych wskaźnikach ubóstwa między miastem a wsią występowała w przypadku ubóstwa relatywnego. Brak wyraźnego obniżania się wskaźnika ubóstwa relatywnego, zwłaszcza na wsi, jest oznaką utrzymywania się w Polsce nierówności dochodowych. W szczególnie trudnej sytuacji społeczno-ekonomicznej na tle pozostałych grup gospodarstw domowych znajdowali się członkowie gospodarstw domowych rolników, dla których wartości wskaźników zagrożenia ubóstwem skrajnym, ustawowym i relatywnym były największe. Na obszarach wiejskich Polski kumuluje się wiele negatywnych zjawisk, które sprzyjają zjawisku ubóstwa. Do najważniejszych z nich zaliczyć można bardzo duże bezrobocie oraz stosunkowo niski poziom wykształcenia ludności wiejskiej.

Opis:
Traditionally, the financial status of households is ascribed by categorizing them as either poor or nonpoor. This study does not make use of such categorization when assessing monetary poverty. Instead, it employs elements of the theory of fuzzy sets. Thus, each household was given a value from the interval [0,1] that indicated the degree of financial poverty according to its equivalised income. The analysis was based on data from household budget survey conducted by the Central Statistical Office in 2010.

Subject and purpose of work: This study assessed child poverty in rural border communities of Nigeria. Materials and methods: Primary data were used and children (5-16years) were respondents to the questionnaire administration. Results: The study revealed that 58% were male while 42% were female. Also, many of the children were in the age bracket 11–15years and more than half (53.9%) of the children were without formal education and into farming. Most of the children (72.4%) earned between N3000 and N10000 as their monthly income. The results further revealed that in the three LGAs, female children experience severe poverty compared to their male counterparts. The study also revealed that the children were severely deprived of: safe drinking water, health facilities, education, sanitised environment especially because there were no toilet facilities in the areas. Conclusions: The study recommended the need for the provision of clean portable water, Basic health care and well-equipped primary and secondary schools.

Opis:
Lawrence M. Mead presented an interesting argument as to why poverty exists in the United States. He problematizes the culture of the poor of which ethnic minorities over-represent. By referring to the geographic regions from which these ethnic minorities came from, he globalised the question of poverty in the US. This invites a global policy debate rather than a US-centric policy debate. Indeed, Mead so freely made references to Africa and the African culture severally throughout his commentary. It is against this backdrop that I show that Mead was right to a large extent on the question of inner-driven individualised orientation. However, he overestimates its influence and misreads what culture is. He presented the culture of poverty as the antecedent of poverty. It was concluded that manipulating both internal drive (internal locus of control) and the structure of society is a more effective way to tackle poverty.

Opis:
In a bid to strengthen the agricultural sector in Nigeria, the Kwara State Government invited thirteen Zimbabwean farmers to participate in agricultural production in Kwara State in 2004. The main objective of this study therefore was to examine the effect of the activities of these foreign farmers on local farmers’ poverty status. A questionnaire was administered on the heads of farming households. A total of 240 respondents were used for the study, which was comprised of 120 contact and 120 non-contact heads of farming households. The analytical tools employed included descriptive statistics and the Foster, Greer and Thorbecke method. The result indicated that the non-contact farming households are poorer than the contact farming households. Using the disaggregated poverty profile, poverty is most severe among the age group of above 60 years. The intensity of poverty is also higher among the married group than the singles. Based on the education level, poverty seems to be most severe among those without any formal education. It is therefore recommended that a minimum of secondary school education should be encouraged among the farming households to prevent higher incidence of poverty in the study area.
W ramach starań o wzmocnienie sektora rolniczego w Nigerii w 2004 roku władze stanu Kwara zaprosiły trzynastu zimbabweńskich rolników do udziału w stanowej produkcji rolnej. Głównym celem badania była analiza wpływu działalności zagranicznych rolników na poziom ubóstwa wśród rolników lokalnych. Kwestionariusz skierowano do osób zarządzających gospodarstwami rolnymi. W badaniu udział wzięło 240 respondentów, w tym 120 mających styczność z działalnością zagranicznych rolników i 120 takich, którzy nie mają z nią styczności. Wykorzystano następujące narzędzia analityczne: statystykę opisową oraz metodę Fostera-Greera-Thorbecka. Zgodnie z uzyskanymi wynikami gospodarstwa rolne pozostające poza enklawą zagranicznych rolników były biedniejsze niż te w jej zasięgu. Według zdezagregowanego pomiaru ubóstwa bieda mocno dotyka osoby z grupy wiekowej powyżej 60 lat. Intensywność ubóstwa jest wyższa także u osób w związku małżeńskim niż stanu wolnego. Ubóstwo wydaje się również bardziej dotkliwe wśród osób nieposiadających oficjalnego wykształcenia. Zaleca się zatem wsparcie uzyskiwania minimalnego wykształcenia średniego przez pracowników gospodarstw rolnych, by zapobiec poszerzaniu zasięgu ubóstwa na badanym obszarze.

Purpose: This study aims to assess the direction of changes in the extent of extreme, relative, and statutory poverty in 2008–2017 in Poland, along with the spatial differentiation of poverty in individual voivodships. Methodology: The study of poverty differentiation based on data from Household Budgets Survey. Obtained results were subjected to statistical analysis, using elements of multidimensional analysis. Results: The research revealed that there are significant differences in the level of poverty in individual voivodships, with lower values observed in Western Poland. A significant drop in the level of poverty, especially extreme poverty, was recorded in 2008–2017. Furthermore, fluctuations in the extent of poverty are strongly impacted by state policy. Implications: Research results may be useful to policy-makers at the local government level not only in Poland but also in other countries, mainly from the perspective of the European Union’s Europe 2020 strategy. Originality/Value: The article undertakes the topic of poverty, which constitutes an important and current socioeconomic concern. Despite progressive economic development, there still exist disadvantaged groups of entities and households.

Opis:
Selected elements of research on factors affecting the level and quality of life of older people in Poland in comparison to other socio-economic groups are presented in the paper. The attention was focused on the level and diversification of pensioners’ household incomes. The author also referred to the structure and amount of expenditures on consumer goods. Greater flattening of incomes in the investigated group, which results, among others, from the roles taken by today’s seniors, was mentioned as well. The issue of poverty risk and the problem of subjective feeling of poverty were also discussed. It was noticed that the feeling concerning economic situation constituted the most important and the most democratic method of determination of the poor fraction. Therefore, the author referred to diverse questions, which aimed at the determination of the amount of people threatened by poverty and actually living in poverty. The questions that concerned the assessment of seniors’ own economic situation and satisfaction of needs as well as the ones which allowed to confront this situation with living conditions of other persons and social groups, were included in the survey. On this basis, it was noticed that the seniors’ assessments were less unambiguous and put them in position of people having average situation. Those questions were used to answer the problem and aim of research, namely if the seniors in Poland in fact lived on low level, both in objective and subjective dimension and, what influenced their poverty. On this basis, it was noticed that the situation of the investigated group was relatively better than the other professionally active groups. Paradoxes of income situation of pensioners’ households in Poland, which often are a source of livelihood or the situation improvement of entire families, particularly in agriculture and in rural areas, and not as they are commonly believed to be beneficiaries of the assistance only, were indicated. It was noticed that a favorable situation of seniors referred to persons who did not have health problems and did not need care. The unpublished data of the Central Statistical Office concerning budgets of households, which the author received in frames of the research project No UMO-2011/01/B/HS5/01034, financed by the National Science Centre, “Level of life of people with uncertain incomes in Poland” were used in the paper and constitute part of the project.

Poverty is a very serious problem concerning the Member States (MS) of the European Union. At present one in every four citizens is affected by the poverty in the European Union. The occurrence also exists in the most prosperous countries of the EU. Nevertheless ,the concept of poverty is not homogeneous. It includes, inter alia, the concept of the feminization of poverty, especially in reference to elderly women. The problem appeared in the 1990s and has been present since then. Poverty among women, especially the elderly ones is associated both with demographic changes in Europe and improper social policies of the Member States. Women, who are more vulnerable to poverty than men, need more attentions from the governments of MS of the UE.
Бедность является очень серьезной проблемой, которая касается странчленов Европейского Союза. В данное время, каждый четвертый гражданин Европейского Союза считается бедным. Проблема бедности касается также и богатых западных демократий. Само понятие бедности не однородное. Оно включает в себя концепцию феминизации бедности и феминизации бедности пожилых женщин. Концепция феминизации бедности была рас-пропагандирована в 90-х годах ХХ века. Бедность среди женщин, особенно пожилых связанна как с демографическими изменениями, происходящими в Европе, так и причиной является неэффективная социальная политика в странах-членах ЕС. Женщины требуют большего внимания со стороны правительств стран-членов ЕС, поскольку в большей мере подвержены бедности, чем мужчины.

The study investigates whether economic growth in the Balkan countries was pro-poor in the most recent period. We also try to establish to what extent various measures of pro-poorness of economic growth produce consistent and comparable results. Firstly, concepts of pro-poor growth are defined and corresponding approaches toward measuring pro-poor growth are presented. We distinguish between measures based on a general class of pro-poor indices and a dominance-based techniques. In the empirical part of the study, we verified whether economic growth in six Balkan countries (Greece, Bulgaria, Romania, Slovenia, Croatia and Serbia) was pro-poor in the 2012–2017 period. The analyses is based on the latest available panel data of the European Union Survey on Income and Living Conditions (EU-SILC). Growth was pro-poor in Croatia, Romania and Slovenia during the whole analysed period. The growth pattern was non pro-poor in Bulgaria, Greece and Serbia in certain years, mainly during periods of economic downfall. Various measures of pro-poor growth patterns do not produce consistent results in all instances. The results of the conducted comparative analysis suggest that the level of social benefits does not directly influence the pro-poor nature of the economic growth.

Głównym celem artykułu jest przedstawienie problemu ubóstwa z etycznego punktu widzenia. Tytułowe zagadnienie jest istotne dla nauk społecznych oraz humanistycznych. W naukach tych obecnych jest wiele koncepcji ubóstwa, które różnią się sposobami jego opisu (naświetlają odmienne aspekty definicyjne, niebezpieczeństwa powodowane przez ten stan oraz ścieżki jego przezwyciężania). Niestety, to kluczowe zagadnienie jest relatywnie rzadko analizowane przez etyków. W związku z tym autor pragnie wypełnić tę lukę i przedstawić ubóstwo jako problem etyczny.
The main purpose of the article is to consider the phenomenon of poverty from the ethical point of view. The addressed problem is essential among social and humanistic sciences. Therefore many concepts of the phenomenon have been presented. They differ in the way they describe the problem of poverty (highlighting different definitional aspects of poverty, risks entailed by this state and ways of solving this problem). Unfortunately, this crucial issue is relatively rare analyzed by the ethicists. The author’s aim is to fill this gap and present the addressed problem from the ethical point of view.

Opis:
Microcredit has been regarded as one of the most powerful tools to address global poverty. More and more financial means is given to the microcredit movement by international institutions, wealthy philanthropists and ordinary people. Yet, strong criticism of this movement appears in which its assumptions are deflated and its effectiveness is challenged. The aim of the article is to reconstruct the most important theoretical and empirical strands in discussion on microcredit as a means to defeat poverty. In this discussion many arguments from different disciplines are presented and their justness depends on specific economic, cultural and religious conditions. Multitude and variety of these arguments seems to enforce the thesis that the question of microcredit’s effectiveness cannot be universally adjudicated because effectiveness differs according to conditions.

Opis:
On the threshold of the 21st century, the problem of poverty remains unresolved. Many still suffer from hunger, and many more have no access to running water, or education. This raises a fundamental question that has bothered economy researchers for centuries: What determines the wealth of some countries, and the poverty of others? One of the contemporary researchers analysing the causes of poverty and development barriers is Indian economist Amartya Kumar Sen. Referring to the socio-economic theory of Sen, the author indicates that modernity implies the need for reflection on the definition of poverty. The author attempts to justify the thesis which focuses on the discord between the evaluation concepts of good and evil with objective economic factors defining poverty. The author suggests that the definition of poverty should be grounded in considerations concerning good and evil in a specific time, as well as cultural and historical context.

Opis:
The main goal of this paper is a collation of methods for diagnosing subjective poverty. The comparison concerns the methods of identification of poverty in the sub-regions of the Pomeranian region. The methods of identification proposed by the author indicate that the proposed methods identify poverty much more precisely than the universal methods. It can be considered to carry on the policy of limiting poverty areas based on the local monitoring. The assembled conclusions can allow improvement of accuracy of directing social help and at the same time can increase acceptance of the rules used in administering this help.

Opis:
Feminizacja ubóstwa to nadal temat aktualny i wymagający pogłębionych badań naukowych. Niższy poziom wynagrodzeń kobiet w stosunku do mężczyzn, nieodpłatna i niedoceniana praca w gospodarstwie domowym, wychowywanie dzieci, w konsekwencji niski poziom lub całkowity brak świadczeń emerytalnych, to wszystko powoduje, że kobiety częściej niż mężczyźni są narażone na ubóstwo. Prowadzone przez autorów artykułu badania ukazują dużą aktywność kobiet będących w sytuacji biedy. Większość respondentek wykorzystuje wszystkie dostępne możliwości, zmierzające do minimalizowania wydatków, maksymalizowania przychodów i poprawy sytuacji ekonomicznej rodziny. Z prezentowanych wyników badań wyłania się obraz kobiet aktywnych, zaradnych, które wkładają wiele wysiłku, aby zaspokoić podstawowe potrzeby rodziny. Stoi to w sprzeczności ze stereotypowym postrzeganiem osób biednych jako leniwych, niezaangażowanych we własne sprawy, czekających jedynie na instytucjonalną pomoc.
Feminization of poverty is still an issue of current and demanding in-depth research. The lower level of women's remuneration in relation to men, unpaid and underestimated work in the household, raising children, consequently, low or lack of pension benefits, all this means that women are more vulnerable to poverty than men. Conducted by the authors of the article, the study shows the high activity of women in a situation of poverty. Most respondents use all available opportunities to minimize expenditures, maximize revenues and improve the family's economic situation. The results of the research show a picture of active and resourceful women who put in a lot of effort to satisfy the basic needs of the family. This is in contradiction with the stereotypical perception of poor people, as a lazy, not involved in their own affairs, waiting only for institutional help.

Opis:
In classical approach to poverty spheres' analyses - both objective and subjective - one uses poverty indicators that characterize mostly the range and the depth of this phenomenon. One of the most basic aspects in a multivariate approach is to determine these factors that increase the risk of poverty. The main aim of this paper is to characterize the poverty determinants as well as to estimate the risk of households becoming threatened by this phenomenon. Chosen methods of measuring qualitative characteristics will be used to achieve this aim. The second goal of this paper is an attempt at estimating and comparing poverty spheres in regional approach by means of most important poverty indicators. The source of the data in both cases is unidentifiable unitary data from household budget research carried out by CSO in 2008 and made available for academic research.

W 1978 r. w Chinach prawie 250 mln obywateli żyło poniżej krajowej linii ubóstwa, a wskaźnik ubóstwa wynosił 30,7%. W 2018 r. wskaźnik ten wyniósł 0,6%. Celem artykułu jest omówienie realizowanej przez władze chińskie strategii redukcji tego zjawiska. Dane statyczne obejmujące okres od początku reform gospodarczych do lat 2018-2019 pokazują proces, jaki dokonał się w tej dziedzinie. Mimo że głównym celem reform podjętych w 1978 r. przez Deng Xiaopinga była poprawa warunków życia, w początkowym okresie nie wdrożono żadnej polityki celowej. Od połowy lat 80. XX wieku sukcesywne i ukierunkowane działania, a także modyfikacja i dostosowywanie wdrażanych programów pozwoliły ograniczyć ubóstwo, szczególnie na obszarach wiejskich. Mimo ewidentnych sukcesów Chiny stoją przed poważnymi wyzwaniami. Konieczne jest precyzyjne ukierunkowanie polityki na rzecz walki z ubóstwem, a także koordynacja strategii i konfrontowanie jej z praktyką.

Opis:
Economists have long been debating about the relationship between economic growth and poverty. In my research I am interested in the effect of economic growth on poverty and income inequality concerning upper-middle income Eastern European countries. I examine this relationship after 1990. Based on Adams’ research, my hypothesis states that in upper-middle income Eastern Europe economic development has significantly reduced income inequalities and poverty since 1990. Besides economic growth, I examine the effect of human development on poverty and inequality as well. To test my hypothesis, I carry out regression analysis and I use data from household surveys and national accounts. Results show that economic growth has had a signifi cant effect on poverty, but not on income inequalities since 1990. It means that economic growth can promote the decrease of the extent and the depth of poverty. Human development, however, has significant effect nor on poverty, neither on income inequalities. So if a country’s government is willing to decrease poverty, it has to concentrate on economic growth, rather than on human development.

The paper discusses an example of applying a linear discriminant function to model the economic poverty of households, on the basis of a survey conducted on a random sample of households in Podkarpackie province. The statistically relevant discriminatory model allows for the identification of poor / not poor categories based on mostly qualitative, demographic and social variables characterizing the households.

The first Sustainable Development Goal expresses the global concern in poverty eradication. We looked at the theory of poverty reduction with a long-term perspective in mind to confirm the congruence of modern approaches and their compliance with the principles of sustainable development. Despite clear signs of targeting Sustainable development goals to the future, we have found that future poverty needs deep discussion. We researched legal acts, policies and scientific sources to prove the possibility and suitability of recognising future poverty as a valid form of poverty. We considered the main possible difficulties that will challenge initiatives of future poverty exhausting. Finally, we proposed several perspective directions of further research to include the future poverty concept into the agenda of governments and supranational organisations.
Pierwszy Cel Zrównoważonego Rozwoju wyraża globalną troskę o eliminację ubóstwa. W tej pracy przyjrzeliśmy się teorii ograniczania ubóstwa w perspektywie długoterminowej, aby potwierdzić zgodność nowoczesnych podejść i ich zgodność z zasadami zrównoważonego rozwoju. Pomimo wyraźnych oznak ukierunkowania Celów zrównoważonego rozwoju na przyszłość, stwierdziliśmy, że kwestia przyszłego ubóstwa wymaga dodatkowej uwagi. Przeanalizowaliśmy akty prawne, polityki i źródła naukowe, aby udowodnić możliwość i stosowność uznania przyszłego ubóstwa za ważną formę ubóstwa. Zastanowiliśmy się nad głównymi możliwymi trudnościami, które będą wyzwaniem dla przyszłych inicjatyw ograniczających ubóstwo. W końcu zaproponowaliśmy kilka perspektywicznych kierunków dalszych badań, aby włączyć koncepcję przyszłego ubóstwa do programu rządów i organizacji ponadnarodowych.

The aim of the paper was to analyse near poverty in Poland. The first specific aim was to analyse the transitions into and out of near poverty in Poland using the Markov transition matrix. Three poverty states were considered: poverty, near poverty (an income of between 100 and 125 per cent of the poverty threshold is assumed in the paper) and above near poverty. The analysis was conducted for Poland based on the balanced panel from 2009 to 2015, the framework of the “Social Diagnosis” project. The second specific aim was to determine the factors that increase and decrease the odds of being in near poverty using bi-nomial logistic regression.

The aim of the article is to examine whether the member states of the European Union guarantee children in poverty the right to specific means of equal opportunities as guaranteed by the European pillar of social rights. A strategy for counteracting poverty based on the A. Giddens’s concept of the ‘social investment state’ was created in the EU. According to this concept, the state should support most of all these social groups which guarantee the highest social advantages. Following this idea, the union strategy for fighting poverty emphasizes the necessity of investing in children from early years of their lives. According to the social investment paradigm adopted by the European Commission, a crucial role in strategies for counteracting child poverty plays early childhood education and care.

Opis:
Unemployment and poverty have been the major causes of crime in developing countries, Nigeria inclusive. The main objective of this paper was to show the connections among unemployment, poverty and crime in Nigeria. It also examined unemployment and poverty rates in Nigeria. The research design adopted for this paper is cross-sectional and explanatory. The paper adopted conceptual framework to show the nexus among the concepts. It used secondary sources of data collection and data analysis was based on content analysis. The study revealed that there is a strong link between unemployment, poverty and crime in Nigeria. The relationship among the concepts is bi-directional. Unemployment has adverse effect on poverty and crime rate. So also poverty negatively affects unemployment and crime rates. Increase in crime rates leads to increase in unemployment and poverty. The paper therefore recommended amongst others that the rate of unemployment must reduce if poverty and crime must reduce. Also the rate of unemployment can be reduced through provision of jobs which will consequently reduce the rate of poverty and also make crime unattractive on the long run.

Due to this, the interaction terms, between the socio-economic factors of households were included in the model. The obtained results can have significant importance in the aspect of social policy in Poland.

By analysing the operation of a women’s cooperative I show how neoliberal ideology, which is at the core of development schemes, incorporates both the feminist ideas of gender equality and empowerment of women, and the Mexican tradition of politicising maternity in a crisis to establish new social hierarchies, subjectivities, and power relations, promote individualistic attitudes and a new, “market-oriented” morality, and reinforce political clientelism, leading to profound and usually detrimental (for women and local gender relations) changes in the functioning of native communities.

The social exclusion is impossibilities determined in categories of participating in relevant aspects of the, economic, political social life and the cultural given society. The poverty is being related to persons, families or groups of people, of which resources (financial, cultural and social) they are limited in such a step, that the level of their life is lowering beyond the accepted minimum in the country of residence. A homelessness is both a cause and effect of other states of the poverty, lack of motivation, rejecting moral norms, lack of the ability, too pathological having socially recognised features. A poverty and a homelessness are one of social important issues of contemporary world which requires preventive concrete actions preventing of coming into existence of this phenomenon in order not to lead to the social exclusion.

Ethics
Opis:
The problem of ethics in international relations is as old as the hills. Moral arguments can mobilize governments and people or prevent somebody from doing something. For the pope John Paul II ethics is „the safeguard of all that is human in any system" and this definition could be useful also to the system of international relations. Answer to the question why Africa hasn't taken advantage of fifty years of independence and is staying out of mainstream of globalization and what should be done to change this situation is rather complex. However, there could be found three groups of answers from ethical point of view which eventually have much to do with each other. One can argue that the most important factor responsible for Africa's current situation is colonialism and neocolonialism, the European domination and the exportation of black slaves from continent. Therefore nowadays rich countries should enlarge their financial help for Africa as a compensation. The argument from another point of view says that the main responsibility is in African culture and tradition and the enlargement of financial help may only make things worse. Africans should take their fate into their hands. There is also the Catholic Church's standpoint, well- known thanks to the Holy See's position in international relations. This point of view combines both above-mentioned and puts emphasis on reconciliation as a starting point to all indispensable changes.

Opis:
Poverty, perceived as a lack of basic consumer goods, gives rise to a whole range of outcomes which affect not only the material dimension of human existence, but also influence social relations and references to spiritual values. Attitudes which could be associated with involuntary and unacceptable poverty include: doubt in the Divine Providence, bitterness, jealousy and envy, blaming others, lack of gratitude and in perceiving good, laziness, lack of initiative, escalating demands, gluttony and greed as well as meanness. However, joy, peace, freedom and solidarity with the poor, as well as work and enterprise, are symptoms of evangelical attitudes of the poor in spirit. Attitudes to poverty point to a wide range of human behaviours towards possessions and in effect, reveal an individual’s sense of value.

Development economics emerged as a separate discipline of economic science in the 1950s but it wasn’t until the 1960s and mid-1970s that it began to draw serious attention. Gradually, an extensive literature concerning economic development was built up. In the 1980s it turned out, however, that despite some successes, the economic growth in most of medium and less developed countries was not as high as expected. During the 1980s and 1990s, the so-called Washington Consensus dominated the theory and practice of economic development. This notion covered the whole range of activities that were to lead the developing countries to improved welfare and prosperity. It included strict fiscal and monetary policies, deregulation, foreign trade and capital flow liberalisation, elimination of government subsidies, moderate taxation, liberalisation of interest rates, maintaining low inflation, etc. Based on the developmental experience of over past ten years, a new paradigm of development is emerging, the elements of which can be described as follows: (1) the basic economic environment should encourage the long-term investment in (2) the economy should have a high sensitivity to market stimuli (3) human capital must complement physical capital (4) due to the fast flow and absorption of information in the rapidly changing world, the key role is played by institutions and mechanisms that jointly respond to stimuli (5) wherever market failures occur, an intervention of the state should be market-friendly 6) social equality must be guaranteed if the economic development is to take place on a sustainable basis.

Development economics became a separate discipline in economic science in the 50s but only in the 60s and mid-70s can one note a bigger interest in those issues. Gradually, there has appeared an extensive literature concerning economic development. In the 80s it turned out, however, that despite some successes, the economic development of the majority of mid- and less developed countries was less satisfactory than expected. During most of the 80s and 90s the so-called Washington consensus dominated theory and practice of economic development. This notion covered the whole range of activities that were to lead the developing countries to greater welfare and prosperity. It included tough fiscal and monetary policy, deregulation, foreign trade and capital flow liberalisation, elimination of government subsidies, moderate taxation, liberalisation of interest rates, maintaining low inflation, etc. From the developmental experience of the past years, a new developmental paradigm is emerging, the elements of which can be described in the following way: • basic economic environment should support investments in the long term • economy should be very sensitive to market stimuli • human resources should complement physical capital • information quick flow and absorption in the fast changing world attribute the key role to the institutions and mechanisms which jointly react to the stimuli. • Wherever there are market imperfections, state intervention should be market friendly. • Social equality must be guaranteed if the economic development is supposed to last on a sustainable basis.

This paper aims to portray the overall picture of poverty in the world and mentions the key solution to overcome poverty from a critical perspective. The data and figures were quoted from a number of researchers and organizations in the field of poverty around the world. Simultaneously, the information strengthens the correlations among poverty and lack of education. Only appropriate philosophies of education can improve the country’s socio-economic conditions and contribute to effective solutions to worldwide poverty. In the 21st century, despite the rapid development of science and technology with a series of inventions brought into the world to make life more comfortable, human poverty remains a global problem, especially in developing countries. Poverty, according to Lister (2004), is reflected by the state of “low living standards and/or inability to participate fully in society because of lack of material resources” (p.7). The impact and serious consequences of poverty on multiple aspects of human life have been realized by different organizations and researchers from different contexts (Fraser, 2000; Lister, 2004; Lipman, 2004; Lister, 2008). This paper will indicate some of the concepts and research results on poverty. Figures and causes of poverty, and some solutions from education as a key breaker to poverty will also be discussed. Creating a universal definition of poverty is not simple (Nyasulu, 2010). There are conflicts among different groups of people defining poverty, based on different views and fields. Some writers, according to Nyasulu, tend to connect poverty with social problems, while others focus on political or other causes. However, the reality of poverty needs to be considered from different sides and ways; for that reason, the diversity of definitions assigned to poverty can help form the basis on which interventions are drawn (Ife and Tesoriero, 2006). For instance, in dealing with poverty issues, it is essential to intervene politically; economic intervention is very necessary to any definition of this matter. A political definition necessitates political interventions in dealing with poverty, and economic definitions inevitably lead to economic interventions. Similarly, Księżopolski (1999) uses several models to show the perspectives on poverty as marginal, motivation and socialist. These models look at poverty and solutions from different angles. Socialists, for example, emphasize the responsibilities of social organization. The state manages the micro levels and distributes the shares of national gross resources, at the same time fighting to maintain the narrow gap among classes. In his book, Księżopolski (1999) also emphasizes the changes and new values of charity funds or financial aid from churches or organizations recognized by the Poor Law. Speaking specifically, in the new stages poverty has been recognized differently, and support is also delivered in limited categories related to more specific and visible objectives, with the aim of helping the poor change their own status for sustainable improvement. Three ways of categorizing the poor and locating them in the appropriate places are (1) the powerless, (2) who is willing to work and (3) who is dodging work. Basically, poverty is determined not to belong to any specific cultures or politics; otherwise, it refers to the situation in which people’s earnings cannot support their minimum living standard (Rowntree, 1910). Human living standard is defined in Alfredsson & Eide’s work (1999) as follows: “Everyone has the right to a standard of living adequate for the health and well-being of himself and his family, including food, clothing, housing and medical care and necessary social services, and the right to security in the event of unemployment, sickness, disability, widowhood, old age or other lack of livelihood in circumstances beyond his control.” (p. 524). In addition, poverty is measured by Global Hunger Index (GHI), which is calculated by the International Food Policy Institute (IFPRI) every year. The GHI measures hunger not only globally, but also by country and region. To have the figures multi-dimensionally, the GHI is based on three indicators: 1. Undernourishment: the proportion of the undernourished as a percentage of the population (reflecting the share of the population with insufficient calorie intake). 2. Child underweight: the proportion of children under age 5 who are underweight (low weight for their age, reflecting wasting, stunted growth or both), which is one indicator of child under-nutrition. 3. Child mortality: the mortality rate of children under 5 (partially reflecting the fatal synergy of inadequate dietary intake and unhealthy environments). Apart from the individual aspects and the above measurement based on nutrition, which help partly imagine poverty, poverty is more complicated, not just being closely related to human physical life but badly affecting spiritual life. According to Jones and Novak (1999 cited in Lister, 2008), poverty not only characterizes the precarious financial situation but also makes people self-deprecating. Poverty turns itself into the roots of shame, guilt, humiliation and resistance. It leads the poor to the end of the road, and they will never call for help except in the worst situations. Education can help people escape poverty or make it worse. In fact, inequality in education has stolen opportunity for fighting poverty from people in many places around the world, in both developed and developing countries (Lipman, 2004). Lipman confirms: “Students need an education that instills a sense of hope and possibility that they can make a difference in their own family, school, and community and in the broader national and global community while it prepare them for multiple life choices.” (p.181) Bradshaw (2005) synthesizes five main causes of poverty: (1) individual deficiencies, (2) cultural belief systems that support subcultures of poverty, (3) economic, political and social distortions or discrimination, (4) geographical disparities and (5) cumulative and cyclical interdependencies. The researcher suggests the most appropriate solution corresponding with each cause. This reflects the diverse causes of poverty; otherwise, poverty easily happens because of social and political issues. From the literature review, it can be said that poverty comes from complex causes and reasons, and is not a problem of any single individual or country. Poverty has brought about serious consequences and needs to be dealt with by many methods and collective effort of many countries and organizations. This paper will focus on representing some alarming figures on poverty, problems of poverty and then the education as a key breaker to poverty. According to a statistics in 2012 on poverty from the United Nations Development Program (UNDP), nearly half the world's population lives below the poverty line, of which is less than $1.25 a day . In a statistics in 2015, of every 1,000 children, 93 do not live to age 5 , and about 448 million babies are stillborn each year . Poverty in the world is happening alarmingly. According to a World Bank study, the risk of poverty continues to increase on a global scale and, of the 2009 slowdown in economic growth, which led to higher prices for fuel and food, further pushed 53 million people into poverty in addition to almost 155 million in 2008. From 1990 to 2009, the average GHI in the world decreased by nearly one-fifth. Many countries had success in solving the problem of child nutrition; however, the mortality rate of children under 5 and the proportion of undernourished people are still high. From 2011 to 2013, the number of hungry people in the world was estimated at 842 million, down 17 percent compared with the period 1990 to 1992, according to a report released by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) titled “The State of Food Insecurity in the World 2013” . Although poverty in some African countries had been improved in this stage, sub-Saharan Africa still maintained an area with high the highest percentage of hungry people in the world. The consequences and big problems resulting from poverty are terrible in the extreme. The following will illustrate the overall picture under the issues of health, unemployment, education and society and politics ➢ Health issues: According a report by Manos Unidas, a non- government organization (NGO) in Spain , poverty kills more than 30,000 children under age 5 worldwide every day, and 11 million children die each year because of poverty. Currently, 42 million people are living with HIV, 39 million of them in developing countries. The Manos Unidas report also shows that 15 million children globally have been orphaned because of AIDS. Scientists predict that by 2020 a number of African countries will have lost a quarter of their population to this disease. Simultaneously, chronic drought and lack of clean water have not only hindered economic development but also caused disastrous consequences of serious diseases across Africa. In fact, only 58 percent of Africans have access to clean water; as a result, the average life expectancy in Africa is the lowest in the world, just 45 years old (Bui, 2010). ➢ Unemployment issues: According to the United Nations, the youth unemployment rate in Africa is the highest in the world: 25.6 percent in the Middle East and North Africa. Unemployment with growth rates of 10 percent a year is one of the key issues causing poverty in African and negatively affecting programs and development plans. Total African debt amounts to $425 billion (Bui, 2010). In addition, joblessness caused by the global economic downturn pushed more than 140 million people in Asia into extreme poverty in 2009, the International Labor Organization (ILO) warned in a report titled The Fallout in Asia, prepared for the High-Level Regional Forum on Responding to the Economic Crisis in Asia and the Pacific, in Manila from Feb. 18 to 20, 2009 . Surprisingly, this situation also happens in developed countries. About 12.5 million people in the United Kingdom (accounting for 20 percent of the population) are living below the poverty line, and in 2005, 35 million people in the United States could not live without charity. At present, 620 million people in Asia are living on less than $1 per day; half of them are in India and China, two countries whose economies are considered to be growing. ➢ Education issues: Going to school is one of the basic needs of human beings, but poor people cannot achieve it. Globally, 130 million children do not attend school, 55 percent of them girls, and 82 million children have lost their childhoods by marrying too soon (Bui, 2010). Similarly, two-thirds of the 759 million illiterate people in total are women. Specifically, the illiteracy rate in Africa keeps increasing, accounting for about 40 percent of the African population at age 15 and over 50 percent of women at age 25. The number of illiterate people in the six countries with the highest number of illiterate people in the world - China, India, Indonesia, Brazil, Bangladesh and Egypt - reached 510 million, accounting for 70 percent of total global illiteracy. ➢ Social and political issues: Poverty leads to a number of social problems and instability in political systems of countries around the world. Actually, 246 million children are underage labors, including 72 million under age 10. Simultaneously, according to an estimate by the United Nations (UN), about 100 million children worldwide are living on the streets. For years, Africa has suffered a chronic refugee problem, with more than 7 million refugees currently and over 200 million people without homes because of a series of internal conflicts and civil wars. Poverty threatens stability and development; it also directly influences human development. Solving the problems caused by poverty takes a lot of time and resources, but afterward they can focus on developing their societies. Poverty has become a global issue with political significance of particular importance. It is a potential cause of political and social instability, even leading to violence and war not only within a country, but also in the whole world. Poverty and injustice together have raised fierce conflicts in international relations; if these conflicts are not satisfactorily resolved by peaceful means, war will inevitably break out. Obviously, poverty plus lack of understanding lead to disastrous consequences such as population growth, depletion of water resources, energy scarcity, pollution, food shortages and serious diseases (especially HIV/AIDS), which are not easy to control; simultaneously, poverty plus injustice will cause international crimes such as terrorism, drug and human trafficking, and money laundering. Among recognizable four issues above which reflected the serious consequences of poverty, the third ones, education, if being prioritized in intervention over other issues in the fighting against poverty is believed to bring more effectiveness in resolving the problems from the roots. In fact, human being with the possibility of being educated resulted from their distinctive linguistic ability makes them differential from other beings species on the earth (Barrow and Woods 2006, p.22). With education, human can be aware and more critical with their situations, they are aimed with abilities to deal with social problems as well as adversity for a better life; however, inequality in education has stolen opportunity for fighting poverty from unprivileged people (Lipman, 2004). An appropriate education can help increase chances for human to deal with all of the issues related to poverty; simultaneously it can narrow the unexpected side-effect of making poverty worse. A number of philosophies from ancient Greek to contemporary era focus on the aspect of education with their own epistemology, for example, idealism of Plato encouraged students to be truth seekers and pragmatism of Dewey enhanced the individual needs of students (Gutex, 1997). Education, more later on, especially critical pedagogy focuses on developing people independently and critically which is essential for poor people to have ability of being aware of what they are facing and then to have equivalent solutions for their problems. In other words, critical pedagogy helps people emancipate themselves and from that they can contribute to transform the situations or society they live in. In this sense, in his most influential work titled “Pedagogy of the Oppressed” (1972), Paulo Freire carried out his critical pedagogy by building up a community network of peasants- the marginalized and unprivileged party in his context, aiming at awakening their awareness about who they are and their roles in society at that time. To do so, he involved the peasants into a problem-posing education which was different from the traditional model of banking education with the technique of dialogue. Dialogue wasn’t just simply for people to learn about each other; but it was for figuring out the same voice; more importantly, for cooperation to build a social network for changing society. The peasants in such an educational community would be relieved from stressfulness and the feeling of being outsiders when all of them could discuss and exchange ideas with each other about the issues from their “praxis”. Praxis which was derived from what people act and linked to some values in their social lives, was defined by Freire as “reflection and action upon the world in order to transform it” (p.50). Critical pedagogy dialogical approach in Pedagogy of the Oppressed of Freire seems to be one of the helpful ways for solving poverty for its close connection to the nature of equality. It doesn’t require any highly intellectual teachers who lead the process; instead, everything happens naturally and the answers are identified by the emancipation of the learners themselves. It can be said that the effectiveness of this pedagogy for people to escape poverty comes from its direct impact on human critical consciousness; from that, learners would be fully aware of their current situations and self- figure out the appropriate solutions for their own. In addition, equality which was one of the essences making learners in critical pedagogy intellectually emancipate was reflected via the work titled “The Ignorant Schoolmaster” by Jacques Rancière (1991). In this work, the teacher and students seemed to be equal in terms of the knowledge. The explicator- teacher Joseph Jacotot employed the interrogative approach which was discovered to be universal because “he taught what he didn’t know”. Obviously, this teacher taught French to Flemish students while he couldn’t speak his students’ language. The ignorance which was not used in the literal sense but a metaphor showed that learners can absolutely realize their capacity for self-emancipation without the traditional teaching of transmission of knowledge from teachers. Regarding this, Rancière (1991, p.17) stated “that every common person might conceive his human dignity, take the measure of his intellectual capacity, and decide how to use it”. This education is so meaningful for poor people by being able to evoking their courageousness to develop themselves when they always try to stay away from the community due the fact that poverty is the roots of shame, guilt, humiliation and resistance (Novak, 1999). The contribution of critical pedagogy to solving poverty by changing the consciousness of people from their immanence is summarized by Freire’s argument in his “Pedagogy of Indignation” as follows: “It is certain that men and women can change the world for the better, can make it less unjust, but they can do so from starting point of concrete reality they “come upon” in their generation. They cannot do it on the basis of reveries, false dreams, or pure illusion”. (p.31) To sum up, education could be an extremely helpful way of solving poverty regarding the possibilities from the applications of studies in critical pedagogy for educational and social issues. Therefore, among the world issues, poverty could be possibly resolved in accordance with the indigenous people’s understanding of their praxis, their actions, cognitive transformation, and the solutions with emancipation in terms of the following keynotes: First, because the poor are powerless, they usually fall into the states of self-deprecation, shame, guilt and humiliation, as previously mentioned. In other words, they usually build a barrier between themselves and society, or they resist changing their status. Therefore, approaching them is not a simple matter; it requires much time and the contributions of psychologists and sociologists in learning about their aspirations, as well as evoking and nurturing the will and capacities of individuals, then providing people with chances to carry out their own potential for overcoming obstacles in life. Second, poverty happens easily in remote areas not endowed with favorable conditions for development. People there haven’t had a lot of access to modern civilization; nor do they earn a lot of money for a better life. Low literacy, together with the lack of healthy forms of entertainment and despair about life without exit, easily lead people into drug addiction, gambling and alcoholism. In other words, the vicious circle of poverty and powerlessness usually leads the poor to a dead end. Above all, they are lonely and need to be listened to, shared with and led to escape from their states. Community meetings for exchanging ideas, communicating and immediate intervening, along with appropriate forms of entertainment, should be held frequently to meet the expectations of the poor, direct them to appropriate jobs and, step by step, change their favorite habits of entertainment. Last but not least, poor people should be encouraged to participate in social forums where they can both raise their voices about their situations and make valuable suggestions for dealing with their poverty. Children from poor families should be completely exempted from school fees to encourage them to go to school, and curriculum should also focus on raising community awareness of poverty issues through extracurricular and volunteer activities, such as meeting and talking with the community, helping poor people with odd jobs, or simply spending time listening to them. Not a matter of any individual country, poverty has become a major problem, a threat to the survival, stability and development of the world and humanity. Globalization has become a bridge linking countries; for that reason, instability in any country can directly and deeply affect the stability of others. The international community has been joining hands to solve poverty; many anti-poverty organizations, including FAO (Food and Agriculture Organization), BecA (the Biosciences eastern and central Africa), UN-REDD (the United Nations Programme on Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation), BRAC (Building Resources Across Communities), UNDP (United Nations Development Programme), WHO (World Health Organization) and Manos Unidas, operate both regionally and internationally, making some achievements by reducing the number of hungry people, estimated 842 million in the period 1990 to 1992, by 17 percent in 2011- to 2013 . The diverse methods used to deal with poverty have invested billions of dollars in education, health and healing. The Millennium Development Goals set by UNDP put forward eight solutions for addressing issues related to poverty holistically: 1) Eradicate extreme poverty and hunger. 2) Achieve universal primary education. 3) Promote gender equality and empower women. 4) Reduce child mortality. 5) Improve maternal health. 6) Combat HIV/AIDS, malaria and other diseases. 7) Ensure environmental sustainability. 8) Develop a global partnership for development. Although all of the mentioned solutions carried out directly by countries and organizations not only focus on the roots of poverty but break its circle, it is recognized that the solutions do not emphasize the role of the poor themselves which a critical pedagogy does. More than anyone, the poor should have a sense of their poverty so that they can become responsible for their own fate and actively fight poverty instead of waiting for help. It is not different from the cores of critical theory in solving educational and political issues that the poor should be aware and conscious about their situation and reflected context. It is required a critical transformation from their own praxis which would allow them to go through a process of learning, sharing, solving problems, and leading to social movements. This is similar to the method of giving poor people fish hooks rather than giving them fish. The government and people of any country understand better than anyone else clearly the strengths and characteristics of their homelands. It follows that they can efficiently contribute to causing poverty, preventing the return of poverty, and solving consequences of the poverty in their countries by many ways, especially a critical pedagogy; and indirectly narrow the scale of poverty in the world. In a word, the wars against poverty take time, money, energy and human resources, and they are absolutely not simple to end. Again, the poor and the challenged should be educated to be fully aware of their situation to that they can overcome poverty themselves. They need to be respected and receive sharing from the community. All forms of discrimination should be condemned and excluded from human society. When whole communities join hands in solving this universal problem, the endless circle of poverty can be addressed definitely someday. More importantly, every country should be responsible for finding appropriate ways to overcome poverty before receiving supports from other countries as well as the poor self-conscious responsibilities about themselves before receiving supports from the others, but the methods leading them to emancipation for their own transformation and later the social change.

Opis:
The aim of the paper was to identify the determinants of the state of poverty using logistic regression. The analysis focused on economic poverty considered through the prism of income. Three states of poverty were considered: poverty, near poverty (household’s income from 100% to 125% of the adopted poverty threshold) and above near poverty (income higher than 125% of poverty threshold), using the ordinal logit model and – after the rejection of the proportional odds assumption – the multinomial logit model. The analysis was preceded by a presentation of the basic facts concerning three states of poverty. Based on the conducted analysis it can be stated that the education of the household's head, place of residence, labourforce status and socio-economic group were very important factors of the state of poverty, and they change the odds of being in above near poverty relative to poverty and the odds of being in near poverty relative to poverty.

Opis:
This article attempts to answer the question: what role does the process of early childhood education and care play in reducing the effects of poverty among children? The main argument of the article states that education (started as early and lasting as long as possible) is the only chance to limit the negative consequences of poverty, as well as to overcome the intergenerational transmission of poverty and social exclusion. Relying on the results of foreign (mostly American) surveys, it has been proven that good quality early childhood education and care is beneficial for children living in poverty, as well as for society as a whole. It positively influences the social and emotional development of children, their language skills and school achievements. Children who benefited from institutions / programmes for early childhood education and care, in adulthood do better in the labour market, have higher earnings and are less likely to seek stimulants. Society bears lower costs of special education, anti-social behaviour, criminal proceedings, social welfare and health of young people and adults.

The subject matter in article was propels connected with influence of changes of prices energy on quality of life of society. Authors try to establish to Polish realities the adequacy of definition of energetistic poverty as well as to qualify, as the growing costs of electric energy influence on standard of citizens’ life. The European climatical policy extorts on all the member’s countries the change of character of energetistic sector. It follows departure from conventional energetics towards unconventional; gas fuel was replaced carbon, as traditional fuel. The renewable sources of energy find more more and more general use, but their economic efficiency and energetistic it is low. This attracts for me the growth of prices of energy and the costs of maintenance, the level of life of large part population worsens. More and more home farms stand up before problem of height of payments for energy and her carriers. The only subject which can these problems you is solve and his agency. The part of state be propeled in formation energetistic policy also and social policy, in support about national legislation as well as unions.
W artykule poruszono tematykę związaną z wpływem zmian cen energii na jakość życia społeczeństwa. Autorzy próbują ustalić adekwatność definicji ubóstwa energetycznego do polskich realiów oraz określić, jak rosnące koszty energii elektrycznej wpływają na standard życia obywateli. Europejska polityka klimatyczna wymusza na wszystkich krajach członkowskich zmianę charakteru sektora energetycznego. Następuje odejście od energetyki konwencjonalnej ku niekonwencjonalnej; węgiel, jako paliwo tradycyjne, zastępuje się paliwem gazowym. Coraz powszechniejsze zastosowanie znajdują odnawialne źródła energii, ale ich efektywność ekonomiczna i energetyczna jest niska. Pociąga to za sobą wzrost cen energii i kosztów utrzymania, a także pogarsza poziom życia dużej części ludności. Coraz więcej gospodarstw domowych staje przed problemem wysokości opłat za energię i jej nośniki. Jedynym podmiotem, który może te problemy rozwiązać, jest państwo i jego agendy. Poruszana jest również rola państwa w kształtowaniu polityki energetycznej i polityki społecznej na podstawie ustawodawstwa krajowego oraz unijnego.

Opis:
The objective of this paper is to examine the influence of poverty, unemployment and GDP on entrepreneurship. Time series data for 31 years was collected from various official sources for the analysis. Vector autoregressive (VAR) framework was adopted to systematically capture the rich dynamic of multiple time series. Other tests conducted were unit root test, Johansen and Juselius (1990) co-integration test, Granger causality and dynamic model analysis beyond the sample. It was found that poverty and GDP influence entrepreneurship negatively, while unemployment influences entrepreneurship positively. The paper reveals the presence of both opportunity and necessity driven entrepreneurs in the country. There is a need for the government to revisit the existing policy on micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) to adequately address the problem of the poor and unemployed by availing them with the opportunity to engage in entrepreneurship. Future study should consider mitigating the effect of frequent entry and exit from entrepreneurship in their data to correctly predict the effect of entrepreneurship on the economy.

Nowadays we can see a fundamental change in social reality. A traditional problem of starvation steadily disappears, and on its place there is a new problem, which is obesity. Today obesity is a global social issue. The scale of the problem has become so large that World Health Organization (WHO) began to talk about the worldwide obesity epidemic. The main objective of the article is to present obesity as one of the most important challenges for the modern social policy. We will try to find the answer for the following questions: What is the essence and prevalence of obesity? What are the socio-economic consequences of obesity? What actions are taken to reduce obesity? The article uses the following research methods: literature review, legislative research and the analysis of statistical data.

  Background: In 2010, the Government of Ghana launched a Labour Intensive Public Work (LIPW) programme through the Ghana Social Opportunities Project (GSOP). It earmarked $56 million for the execution of the programme in 60 relatively poor districts in Ghana. The programme is directed to offer jobs and income earning opportunities to some identified rural poor, especially the youth, during the seasonal labour demand shortfalls through the rehabilitation and maintenance of public or community infrastructure like roads and dams. Objectives: The article aim to investigate the extent to which the programme has reduce poverty among the youth with the Daffiam Bussie Issah District in Ghana as a case study. Method: A mixed research method involving both qualitative and quantitative methods were employed in the study. The matched case-control study design was adopted. Ninety (90) beneficiary youth in three (3) beneficiary communities of the LIPW programme were compared with ninety (90) youth in three other non-beneficiary communities in the same district. Focus group sessions were also held with beneficiary youth of the programme to understand how the programme has impacted on their lives. Results: The study revealed that beneficiary youth of the LIPW programme were able to increase their livestock holding by 71.4%, monthly income by 24.4%, food consumption by 25.9% and farm sizes by 41.6%. Conclusion: The study recommended that the government of Ghana should scare up the LIPW programme to cover more communities in order to reduce poverty in Ghana

Opis:
Research background: Income inequality and poverty attract a lot of attention among politicians, activists as well as scientists, who are trying to find a solution to these socio-economic problems. State intervention is commonly expected in this field, however, there is no agreement about the most efficient methods and instruments, as well as about the scale of public expenditure for the purpose of limiting poverty and inequality. Purpose of the article: The aim of the paper is to specify efficiency of government social spending in reducing problems of poverty and income inequality in the EU countries. Moreover, the attention is paid to changes in the efficiency in a period of the 2007 crisis occurrence and its overcoming and to sources of the changes. Methods: To fulfill the main goal of the paper, the DEA method is used, which enables to compare the social efficiency of the EU countries. The Malmquist index is also calculated and decomposed to identify changes in the efficiency and their sources in the crisis period. Data used in the analyses were obtained from Eurostat and OECD databases and cover the period from 2007 to 2016 year. Findings & Value added: The main findings of the paper shed some light on the differences in social efficiency of government spending in the EU countries. Generally, the countries with a higher level of social spending are also those with lower efficiency in inequality reduction, however, the relationship doesn?t appear for poverty alleviation. Thus, the research suggests some substitution between the scale and the efficiency of social spending, at least for the inequality dimension. Moreover, some differences in a social model can be found between the countries of the  South and of the North: the countries of the South focus their social policy mainly on inequality reduction, while the Scandinavian countries as well as some other affluent societies direct their public support mainly on poverty alleviation. The research also shows that in the crisis period decreases in efficiency concerned mainly the poverty dimension. It reflects the fact that the poor were the losers of the crisis in favor of the middle classes. The efficiency losses were induced by negative changes in the current usage of public sources, while institutional reforms positively influenced the efficiency.

Celem artykułu jest empiryczne badanie zależności między bezrobociem i ubóstwem a przestępczością w Polsce na poziomie województw. Wykorzystane zostały dane przekrojowe, szeregi czasowe oraz dane panelowe za lata 2002-2012. Uzyskane wyniki sugerują, że wzrost stopy bezrobocia, a także ubóstwa może prowadzić do wzrostu natężenia przestępstw (szczególnie przeciwko mieniu) na danym terenie. W badaniach zależności między przestępczością a bezrobociem uwzględniono pewne szczególne rodzaje bezrobocia mogące mieć kryminogenny charakter, jak bezrobocie długoterminowe czy bezrobocie wśród osób młodych posiadających niskie wykształcenie.
There is empirically verified impact of unemployment and poverty on crime in the voivodships of Poland. There is presented spatial variation of poverty and crime in the regions of Poland. It is noticed that voivodships with highest poverty rate are characterized by lowest property crime rate. Then there were used time series and panel data sets. Panel data analysis suggests that increasing unemployment or poverty rate may lead to increase of crime rate and victimization risk.

Opis:
The problem of social exclusion has remained the centre of attention in Europe for several years now. To emphasise its importance, year 2010 was European Year for Combating Poverty and Social Exclusion. This significant social problem is existent in many domains. The term of social exclusions, used alternatively with social marginalisation has been in use since the 1960’s. Exclusion can be understood both as a status and as a process. Exclusion occurs when someone’s basic social laws cannot be respected. The state of Poland experiences poverty which results from the lack of means that would allow to fulfill basic needs which sometimes are exclusion’s both a cause and a consequence. One of the ‘faces’ of social exclusion is the financial one, understood as the lack of access to necessary financial services. However, there are many tools to prevent this form of exclusion. The author concentrated on those forms which are a social initiative, rather than the state’s. Therefore quasi barter tools, such as Local Exchange and Trade Systems (LETS) or time dollars as well as commercial tools known as social lending were analysed. The author also shows the meaning of initiatives such as slow life as well as co-housing indicating that local societies have a large and varied arsenal, that – if used properly – can prevent the ‘plaque of the 21st century’, as some call the social exclusion often stemming from the individual’s alienation. Those instruments indicate the important role of society’s self-organisation. Due to its origin it is in many cases much more effective than formal and by that inflexible state bodies’ activities. However, this does not mean that local societies should replace the state structures. They are, and should remain, complementary to state help.

Because of this, they propose a new way to fight global poverty. The paper presents this way. It is based on randomized trials to reveal the multi-faceted and complex economic lives of the poor. Limitations of the new perspective are shown.

Opis:
In theoretical literature there is a great divergence among the definitions of the essence of poverty. It is usually identifi ed as a shortage of essential material means to survive, but this characterization is not sufficient to describe the phenomenon. The multifaceted criteria of measuring poverty, its forms and causes, make it difficult to find a common ground for understanding and effective solutions. What additionally comes into play are disputes concerning doctrine and type of government preferences, which often heat up the discussion instead of enabling a move closer to a well-structured solution that aids eradicating poverty. Amartya Sen establishes the concept of poverty as a failure of basic exchange entitlements. Deciding on this approach, he consistently references the idea of freedom as an unrestricted use of one’s capabilities to pursue desired goals. Poverty then is seen here as a lack of basic exchange entitlements, and not only as a matter of low income, which in turn poses a different problem not only for the economists, but also for the governing bodies, which are responsible for eliminating poverty (and hunger in particular) in the modern world. Sen therefore suggests shifting focus from a perspective centered around income to a perspective centered around capabilities, because the former one is a more precise way of defining the essence of poverty as a state in which some basic exchange entitlements become restricted, which can furthermore widen our field of research from a strictly economic to one to an ethical/anthropological standpoint, giving a clearer picture of the distinct character of poverty and the poor. Pursuing of one’s freedom becomes problematic in the context of poverty and particularly hunger, because in this situation human exchange entitlements are restricted, “handicapped” or fail completely. Amartya Sen’s proposal to expand the number of exchange entitlements, however justified and significant to a particular individual, turns out to be insufficient, because it seems that freedom ontologically extends beyond the category human exchange entitlements.

In the article the author presents poverty as a sign of the credibility of Christianity. He does so by referring, first of all, to the teaching of the Church (the Second Vatican Council, the Pact of the Catacombs, Pope Francis’ teaching), as well as to contemporary theology. The analysis is viewed from the fundamental theological perspective. Apart from traditional ways of justifying the Church’s credibility, the author proposes a new one – via paupertatis. It means that the Church is as credible as long as it is poor. Poverty is the criterion of its authenticity. By becoming poor, the Church imitates Jesus himself. Thus, in its deepest dimension, poverty has a Christological justification.

The sense of threat resulting from the potential overpopulation of our globe is not a new phenomenon. As early as in ancient times, philosophers raised concerns over the excessive number of people that could disturb the stability of the state. Looking at the current demographic situation in the world, the author of the paper focuses on potential consequences of human overpopulation as well as various strategies of preventing the negative consequences of this phenomenon. The conducted analyses show that the reduction of poverty is a morally uncontroversial method of overcoming difficulties related to the growing number of inhabitants of our planet.

Opis:
The social teaching of the Catholic Church is a doctrine on matters of poverty and wealth, economics, social organization and the role of the state. The principles of Catholic social teaching are: human dignity, love, truth, freedom, justice, solidarity, subsidiarity, participation, preferential option for the poor and vulnerable, dignity of work and the rights of workers and care for God’s creation. Several organs of the Holy See are dedicated to social issues, among others the Pontifical Council for Justice and Peace. Although blessed with a wealth of natural resources, Africa is the poorest continent. Poverty is understood in many different ways, but most commonly it is described as an economic condition where one lacks both money and the basic necessities that are needed to successfully survive. Many people in Africa still live in abject poverty because of bad governance, corruption and human irresponsibility. Many Africans are also victims of diseases such as AIDS and malaria. In this situation the Catholic Church can play a critical role by advocating for economic justice and eradication of poverty from Africa. The Catholic Church in Africa, which calls herself the Family of God, undertakes many actions against the poverty, such as: education, health, aid to the needy, development projects, defence of human rights, and the commitment to bring about democracy and legally constituted states. Making his first trip to Africa, Pope Benedict XVI said the Catholic Church can help to bring an answers to the continent's chronic problems, including poverty, AIDS and tribalism.

In this paper I uncover the identity response of the homeless to structural constraints that are facilitated through objectively produced and mass mediated culture. After an initial period of “liberation,” physical deprivation leads the homeless to seek institutionalized help. The “homeless” category constructed by the shelter industry absolves the system of blame and obfuscates the systemic roots of homelessness. In their picking and dropping of identities, and negotiations of meaning without any referential space to root themselves in, the homeless reveal to us the cultural tragedy of the present that affects us all due to rapid social change inherent in advanced capitalism.

Aim/purpose – This study investigates the links between unemployment, poverty and economic growth in Nigeria between the periods, 1985-2015. Design/methodology/approach – The paper employed the Augment Dickey Fuller test for unit root test, Johansen cointegration for cointegration, Ganger causality for causality test and Error Correction Model to establish the short-run links between the variables. Findings – The unit root test result revealed that the variables trend with time indicating their failure of integration at level. However, they were found to be stationary at first difference. The causality result revealed that there is no causal relationship between unemployment, poverty and growth in Nigeria. Similarly, the cointegration results showed that there is no long-run relationship between unemployment, poverty and economic growth in Nigeria. The short-run parameter estimates indicated that unemployment has a negative and significant relationship with growth. However, the coefficient of the interaction between unemployment and poverty is positive and significant at the conventional level. Research implication/limitations – This study suggest that the output growth in the country will occur even if there are poor people as defined in absolute terms. The economy will still expand even if the number of poor people increases. This is also the case in the short run, revealing that the economy has grown even though over the years, the numbers of poor people have increased. Thus, there is a need for stable macroeconomic policies that would ensure equal distribution of income so that the poor also benefits from the country’s growth. Originality/value/contribution – This study empirically examines the contribution of output growth towards employment generation and poverty reduction using data sets from the Central Bank of Nigeria, National Bureau of Statistics and World Bank.

Opis:
The problem of modern society is that it does not integrate its members into functional systems as a collectivity of individuals with a sense of community and interdependence, but makes them a group of consumers who want to achieve success on their own and for their own benefits. However, not everyone is able to achieve the desired goal. As a result, we have social inequalities that significantly affect relationships and social processes. For many years, economists and sociologists have pointed to the fact that economic success does not necessarily translate into welfare (or quality of life) of societies. They even talk about the “breakdown of society” phenomenon, i.e., an increase in antisocial behaviour and a loss of a sense of community. In the current social reality, we can identify many examples of the fact that their fears are justified. All this makes the need for educational measures to stop or even reverse these phenomena threatening social cohesion seem reasonable.

Recently the reports of terrorist acts, committed either by separatists or Muslim fundamentalists, have been getting more and more frequent. The sole definition of terrorism, as an act against human life or health (or its threat), conducted as a mean to terrorize and force an organized group of people (usually a nation) to fulfill the culprits’ demands, neither leads to its moral judgment nor is sufficient to find the way to prevent it. To answer those questions one has to consider such aspects as the reasons behind the attacks and the terrorists’ goals. The question about the moral interpretation of terrorism is a question whether we agree with the statement, that the end justifies the means, or not. Any apology of terrorism has to be based on utilitarian grounds. In case of the political terrorism, in some instances the terrorist act might be considered the lesser evil, while such justification does not apply to the religious terrorism. Simple calculation is not sufficient. What’s most detestable in terrorism is the fact, that it is blind, it affects both the guilty and innocent indiscriminately. Therefore the terrorist act itself should be deemed as evil and should be met with firm resistance, and the demands associated with it should be ignored or fulfilled in an indirect manner (if they are just), so that this action would not be tied to the act itself, as it may trigger another attack. It is also important to establish the limits of the counterterrorism, and to consider whether the renouncement of some rights and the impairment of some institutions is not an indirect goal of the terrorists. An unequivocal answer to the question “is terrorism solely evil?” is not possible, for it depends strongly on the point of view. The same applies to the methods of the fight against terrorism – a military act might lead to the escalation of the conflict, and at the same time ideological war might have questionable effectiveness. Important causes of the terrorism are poverty and the lack of proper education, a long-term fight against terrorism should be therefore based on their prevention.

Opis:
Celem badania przedstawionego w artykule jest określenie poziomu ubóstwa energetycznego gospodarstw domowych w Unii Europejskiej (UE) i krajach stowarzyszonych, ocenianego na podstawie niezdolności do odpowiedniego ogrzania mieszkania. Zastosowano metodę systematycznego przeglądu literatury. Analiza, przeprowadzona na podstawie danych Eurostatu i Głównego Urzędu Statystycznego, objęła wyniki badania EU-SILC z lat 2009–2018. Wynika z niej, że średnia liczba gospodarstw domowych niezdolnych do odpowiedniego ogrzania mieszkania w Europie maleje. Jednak w niektórych krajach, takich jak Macedonia, Litwa czy Bułgaria, liczba gospodarstw domowych doświadczających tego problemu nadal pozostaje duża. W Polsce poziom omawianego zjawiska jest niższy niż średni poziom w UE. Aby pogłębić analizę dotyczącą Polski, dokonano oceny korelacji wskaźnika ubóstwa energetycznego z wysokością przeciętnego dochodu per capita w gospodarstwie domowym oraz z poziomem ubóstwa ekonomicznego. W tym celu zastosowano współczynnik korelacji r-Pearsona.
The purpose of the study presented in the article is to determine the level of energy poverty in households of the European Union (EU) and associated countries, pronounced on the basis of the household's inability to supply its dwellings with adequate heat levels. The method of systematic literature review was applied. An analysis based on Statistics Poland and Eurostat data included the results of the EU-SILC research conducted in the years 2009-2018. The analysis indicated that the average number of households unable to sufficiently heat their homes is decreasing in Europe. However, in some countries, such as Macedonia, Lithuania or Bulgaria, the number of households experiencing energy poverty is still high. In Poland, the scale of this problem is smaller than the EU average. In order to conduct an in-depth analysis for Poland, an assessment was made of the correlation between the energy poverty rate and the average income per person in a household and the level of economic poverty. For this purpose the r-Pearson correlation coefficient was applied.

Opis:
Purpose - The aim of the study was to assess the effects of introducing the formula of defined contribution, as analyzed from the perspective of pension adequacy in Poland.Methodology - The main research methods employed included literature studies, theoretical considerations, and an empirical analysis of statistical data.Findings - The Polish pension system may be closer to balancing, but at the expense of lowering the replacement rate, which under the current conditions may even fall below the poverty threshold. Extending the universal retirement age may partly improve the financial situation of future pensioners, especially women.Originality/Value - In conclusion, it was observed that the legislators’ excessive preoccupation with maintaining long-term financial sustainability is not conducive to the achievement of other important goals of the pension system, such as ensuring the adequacy of pensions and preventing elderly people from falling into poverty. In light of the above, further reforms may still be required.

Poverty is a serious problem in Slovakia, and it is concentrated in a few regions. The aim of this paper is to capture the spatial differences in poverty in order to identify the poorest districts and to point to the change in the development of poverty in regions during one decade (2001–2011). It was an important period, because it was when Slovakia joined the EU (2004) and the euro zone (2009), that the financial crisis appeared. Our approach to the topic of poverty is based on an aggregated poverty indicator. The indicator reflects three kinds of risks and a broad spectrum of poverty aspects.

Opis:
All around the world many people suffer from the lack of sufficient income, well-being or good health. Who among the poor should we help first? Some of the most influential research on poverty has been developed by a famous economist and philosopher Amartya K. Sen. This article is concerned with the problem of reciprocal relations between various concepts and theories of poverty, kinds of ethics and taking decisions about helping poor people. According to Sen, while taking decisions to help the poor we should base our arguments on the capability approach rather than on the basic needs approach, on the entitlement approach rather than the food availability decline, and on the capability rights system rather than utilitarianism.

This article addresses the problem of fighting poverty on the basis of the liberal political philosophy of Amartya Sen. The aim is to demonstrate that this program has gained its practical embodiment in the work of Muhammad Yunus and the Grameen Bank he created. In this article I will reconstruct the main arguments of Sen’s political theory, in which the question of support is associated with the concept of social justice and based on the assumption of methodological individualism. This means that all programs and economic decisions that focus on the implementation of social welfare must be assessed from the perspective of individuals and must consider how they affect their lives. The criterion for determining a „good life” in the concept of Sen is not economic but political: it is the freedom of an individual realized in a society, including its scope and practical forms. Sen is an economist and political philosopher and Yunus is an economist-practitioner, but they both share a belief in the world development in increasing human freedom and poverty eradication, thanks to capabilities and creative activities of people. The political and economic institutions should then trigger the enterprise of individuals and enable them to extract themselves from poverty.

Opis:
Aim/purpose – Financial inclusion is a catalyst for achieving sustainable development. This study attempts to evaluate impact of financial inclusion on sustainable development. Design/methodology/approach – Both Error Correction Model (ECM) and Fully Modified Ordinary Least Square (FMOLS) were used to ascertain the short-run and long-run relationship respectively among the variables which covers the period from 2001 to 2016, as data for HDI (Human Development Index) were available for Nigeria from 2001 through 2016 only. Findings – The result of the analysis indicated that in the short-run there is short-run causality running from a number of commercial bank branches, demand deposit from the rural areas, loan to rural areas to HDI. The long-run result revealed that the explanatory variables consisting of loan to rural areas, number of commercial bank branches and demand deposit from the rural areas all have positive significant impact on HDI in Nigeria. The overall result revealed that financial inclusion has impact on sustainable development in Nigeria. Research implications/limitations – The study recommends that banks and monetary authorities should develop new product and services that will attract savings from the rural dwellers because of the level of significance of their deposit to the development of the country. All the more so as commercial banks should also ensure that the rural dwellers are provided with more bank branches, most especially, in areas where there are few or no banks. Credit facilities should also be provided to the people at an affordable rate as this will uplift the level of inclusion and reduce the level of exclusion in the country which will improve the sustainable development in the country. Originality/value/contribution – Empirically, the study attempted to investigate the impact of financial inclusion on sustainable development in Nigeria. The results of the study suggest that government should continue its effort in the area of poverty alleviation by embracing financial inclusion via a vis financial institutions introducing new financial product and services at lower cost that will cater for the disadvantaged group in the society.

Opis:
The aim of our research is to examine how individual dimensions of globalization affect economic poverty in the World. For this, regression models are estimated with FGT0 or FGT1 poverty measures as dependent variables and KOF indices of globalization as dependent variables. The poverty indices are estimated for 119 countries’ income distributions assuming log-normality and using Gini estimates from the WID2 database and GDP/capita from The World Bank database for the years 1990-2005. It has turned out that the “partial” impact of selected dimension of globalization on poverty is either linear or nonlinear, ceteris paribus. The nonlinear impact is of the U-shaped form or the inverted U-shaped form. Our results contradict some typical ‘linear’ findings when poverty measures are regressed only on one dimension of globalization. In other words, when some crucial dimensions of globalization are neglected in regression analysis the conclusions about impact of globalization on world poverty could be misleading.

Opis:
This study examines how people who have been constrained by extreme or chronic poverty, rural location, and adversity in interpersonal relationships make decisions and engage in agency through their narratives and everyday experiences. As a social scientific concept, the agency indicates the intentional behavior of individuals in the context of their environments, relations, and situations. In-depth, semi-structured interviews were collected with sixteen participants in rural south-central New York state who were living in extreme and/or chronic poverty. While exercising agency is viewed as important to the upward mobility of families and individuals in poverty, our participants encountered not only complex contexts for doing so but, at times, engaged in rebellious or counterproductive forms of agency. Furthermore, family ideology, such as traditional family values, shaped the perceived possibilities for forming one’s life course. We find the structure-agency dichotomy less useful than a framework that incorporates additional sources of constraints on agency, such as embodiment and culture. We also encounter difficulty in applying the concept of agency to the experiences of our research participants in ways that point to the necessary reworking of the concept.

Subject and purpose of work: This research was conducted to measure the influence of the Suramadu Bridge on the reduction of rural poverty and to determine the impact of production factors such as physical capital, natural capital, human capital and financial capital on poverty before and after the Suramadu Bridge began operating in Kabupaten Bangkalan. Materials and methods: This study adapted the model used by Nashwari et al (2017) which was analysed applying Ordinary Least Square (OLS). The data from Village Potential 2007 and 2017 was used in the research. Results: Many production factors in the village did not have a significant effect on the poverty reduction before the Suramadu Bridge began operating. After the Suramadu Bridge opened, it has had a significant negative impact on poverty. The number of farmers, rice fields, non-agricultural activities, superior products, skills facilities and credit facilities has a significant positive effect on the reduction of the poverty level. Conclusions: The existence of the Suramadu Bridge has increased the influence of production factors in the villages on the poverty reduction in Kabupaten Bangkalan.

Small area estimation methods have become a widely used tool to provide accurate estimates for regional indicators such as poverty measures. Recent research has provided evidence that spatial modelling still can improve the precision of regional and local estimates. In this paper, we provide an intrinsic spatial autocorrelation model and prove the propriety of the posterior under a flat p rior. F urther, we show using the SAIPE poverty data that the gain in efficiency using a spatial model can be essentially important in the presence of a lack of strong auxiliary variables.

Opis:
This paper investigates the mean reversion in household consumption expenditure in 38 African countries; the expenditure series used were the percentage of nominal Gross Domestic Product (GDP), each spanning 1990 to 2018. Due to a small sample size of time series of household expenditure, with possible structural breaks, we used the Fourier unit root test approach, which enabled us to model both smooth and instantaneous breaks in the expenditure series. The results showed non-mean reversion in the consumption expenditure pattern of Egypt, Madagascar and Tunisia, while mean reversion was detected in the remaining 35 countries. Thus, the majority of African countries are on the verge of recession once shocks that affect the growth of GDP are triggered. Findings in this paper are of relevance to policymakers on poverty alleviation programmes in those selected countries.

Opis:
Poverty is the primary focus of this paper; more particularly, the critique of poverty and not its mere description. It would not be an overstatement to say that one of the common grounds for poverty theories is that they describe the poor as those who systematically experience their lives in privation, namely around having the minimum when it comes to needs such as housing, food, health, education, free time, etc. There is, therefore, a theoretical and socially accepted orientation that promotes the sedimentation of a deep affinity between poverty and the minimum. Based on this reasoning, what is set on the horizon is a kind of non-explicit acceptance that the overcoming of poverty can be achieved by granting the poor something beyond the minimum, however elementary that “something extra” may be. Thus, if the experience of poverty involves some sort of lack or privation, and if this condition can be fully filled by something that has already been socially produced, then what would justify the fact that some people are able to fully fill it while others (the poor) can only secure the bare minimum? In light of this, perhaps it would be better not to question the acceptable “minimum” but, rather, to ask: Why would the notion of poverty be guided by this normative criterion? Therefore, a way of describing my broader hypothesis on poverty would be to understand that it should be measured based on the level of denial of access to what has been socially produced. The further one is from accessing social wealth, the poorer one is. Finally, this tendency toward assimilation between poverty and the minimum engenders a depressive effect on demands for social change.
Głównym tematem tego artykułu jest ubóstwo, w szczególności zaś jego krytyka, a nie tylko opis. Nie będzie przesadą stwierdzenie, że jedną z powszechnych podstaw teorii ubóstwa jest definiowanie biednych jako tych, którzy systematycznie doświadczają swojego życia w niedostatku, a mianowicie posiadają określone minimum, jeśli chodzi o potrzeby takie, jak mieszkanie, żywność, zdrowie, edukacja, czas wolny itp. Istnieje zatem teoretyczna i społecznie akceptowana orientacja sprzyjająca wytwarzaniu głębokiego pokrewieństwa między ubóstwem a minimum. Na opartym na takim rozumowaniu horyzoncie pojawia się rodzaj niewyraźnej akceptacji, że przezwyciężenie ubóstwa można osiągnąć poprzez przyznanie ubogim czegoś ponad minimum, niezależnie od tego, jak elementarne może być to „coś ekstra”. Jeśli więc doświadczenie ubóstwa wiąże się z jakimś rodzajem braku lub niedostatku i jeśli ten warunek może być spełniony przez coś, co zostało już społecznie wytworzone, to co uzasadniałoby fakt, że jedni ludzie są w stanie go spełnić, a inni (ubodzy) mogą zapewnić sobie tylko absolutne minimum? W świetle tego być może lepiej nie kwestionować dopuszczalnego „minimum”, ale raczej pytać: dlaczego pojęcie ubóstwa miałoby kierować się tym normatywnym kryterium? Dlatego sposobem na opisanie mojej szerszej hipotezy dotyczącej ubóstwa byłoby zrozumienie, że należy je mierzyć na podstawie poziomu odmowy dostępu do tego, co zostało społecznie wytworzone. Im dalej od dostępu do bogactwa społecznego, tym biedniejsi są ludzie. Wreszcie, ta tendencja do asymilacji ubóstwa i minimum wywołuje depresyjny wpływ na żądania zmiany społecznej.

Most often they involve inbalance of socialization in the future social roles, especially the parent and employee. Trauma and suffering experienced by individuals and entire societies are also significant.

Abstract In Nigeria, several advocacies have been raised in different fora over time that agriculture is capable of reducing poverty in the country. An attempt to empirically validate the above argument has generated a policy mix in the literature. Therefore, further empirical investigation about this subject matter becomes imperative. Consequently, the study utilized the DOLS and Granger Causality Approach to address the objective of this study. However, the principal findings that emerged in this study are as follows: in the long run, there is a significant positive relationship between the employment in agriculture and poverty level, inflation rate and poverty level have a negative relationship with each other. Meanwhile, agricultural output causes a significant reduction in the poverty level. Also, one-way feedback relationship runs from agricultural output to the poverty level in the country. Based on the findings that originated in this study, this paper makes the following recommendations for the policymakers, future researchers and all the stakeholders in the agricultural sector in Nigeria that agricultural output has the capacity to reduce poverty level in the country. This implies that when poverty reduction is the target of the policymakers in the country, manipulating agricultural output will induce the reduction in poverty level in the long run. Also the government should possess political goodwill to revamp agricultural sector.

Opis:
Rural poverty appears in several European regions, particularly in post-socialist countries effected by a rapid transformation of socioeconomic system. In the past decade, rural regions may have reacted to challenges of contradictory processes. Migration trends are heterogeneous; unemployment, underemployment and lack of labour power are existing problems at the same time, in the same locality. In addition, the nature of poverty has changed recently. Traditional forms of pauperization are combined with helplessness and inability for future planning and saving up. Goods and status symbols of the consumer society have high importance in families with low incomes and high debt. The aim of this paper is to describe some crucial processes triggering the transformation of family life in rural Hungary by means of a qualitative research conducted in the South Transdanubian region of Hungary. We explored the actual problems and challenges from the viewpoints of local experts (social workers and mayors) and mothers from families connected to local social systems. We also aim to examine family attitudes to labour market, services and consumption, the most important factors effecting socioeconomic conditions of deprived social groups.

Opis:
The Polish version of the article was published in “Roczniki Humanistyczne,” vol. 61 (2013), issue 2. The article presents selected aspects of the functioning of the concept of poverty in the narrative of Old Polish Franciscan preaching of the Saxon era. The relationship between the context formed by Old Polish culture and the role of the idea of poverty in the Franciscan movement is presented. The author attempts to present the adaptation of the topica, drawing on the broadly conceived Christian tradition, to the realities of the Polish Republic. To do so, an analysis of the discourse of various types of sermons is presented. The object of the analysis is Sunday and holiday preaching. The article, though, focuses on funeral sermons, which apparently has great significance for the Sarmatian culture. The concluding section highlights the extreme importance of the issue of poverty as one of those cultural symbols that defined the place and meaning of caritas in Old Polish culture. It was also necessary to form various aspects of the social sensitivity of those times.

Opis:
Social challenges with the economic background result from social stratification not only within one society, but especially between societies. The division between wealthy north (with the visible trend of growing standards of life) and poor south (where the tendency is reverse due to high unemployment rates, overpopulation, housing and health problems as well as water and food shortages) is being more and more visible. Economic migrations have become a commonplace and also a source of further and more complicated political issues. They are pushing multicultural approaches forward on the one hand, but on the other aggravate ethnic conflicts, stimulate xenophobic and nationalist movements. Assimilation problems resulting from reluctance of indigenous societies and resistance of the migrants because of traditions, habits, values and religious beliefs only deepen dissimilarities in perception of how the coexistence should look like. This in turn imposes certain legislative and normative problems on governments and local societies and their administration. Aging of societies, which is mainly the problem of the most developed European countries, which are host countries for economic migrants at the same time, does not make this problem easier. This article will focus on most durging social problems in Europe which have conflict-generating potential, i.e. overpopulation on the one hand and aging of societies on the other, poverty and social stratifi cation, migrations and resulting assimilation problems.

I reflect Wilhelm Dilthey’s opinion about the distinction between autobiography and Self-biography, and I present the Self-biography as a right way to concretize the themes of poverty and exclusion.

Opis:
The phenomenon of poverty occupies an important place in the discourse on the problem of exclusion and social marginalisation. The problem of children in a poverty situation is most often analysed through the prism of family poverty. Meanwhile, it is worth noting that poverty in childhood has a different dimension than in adulthood, because it disturbs the proper development of the child. Children’s experience of poverty affects their further life, often with irreversible consequences. Numerous institutions and individuals offer their help and support to improve the lives of children in Africa. This activity takes the form of either immediate or long-term help. One of those institutions that actively participate in solving the problem of poverty in Africa is the Catholic Church. Its involvement in helping children in a poverty situation is an important dimension of social support.

W nawiązaniu do historycznych idei zapewnienia krajom Europejskiej Wspólnoty Węgla i Stali taniej energii, przedstawiono negatywne skutki, jakie dla gospodarstw domowych niesie obecna polityka UE walki z „globalnym ociepleniem”. Omówiono definicje ubóstwa dochodowego, bazującą na wzglednym progu wynoszącym 60% mediany dochodów rozporządzalnych gospodarstw domowych i wskaźnik zagrożenia wykluczeniem społecznym przyjete przez Eurostat. Podano miejsce Polski w hierarchii ubóstwa na tle innych krajów UE. Zwrócono uwage na drastyczne różnice progów ubóstwa (wyznaczonych zarówno w euro jak i w jednostkach standardu siły nabywczej PPS) pomiedzy starymi i nowymi członkami UE. Przedstawiono skale rosnącego ubóstwa w Polsce i zwiekszającego sie rozwarstwienia dochodów (udokumentowane poziomem ilorazu V. i I. kwintyla dochodów gospodarstw domowych i wskaźnikiem Giniego) na tle danych UE, pomimo dodatniego wzrostu PKB. Porównano gospodarstwa domowe w Polsce i UE zwracając uwage na udział energii i paliw w ich wydatkach. Przedstawiono historie rosnących cen nośników energii w euro oraz zwrócono uwage na wyjątkowo wysoki poziom cen energii w Polsce mierzony w jednostkach PPS. Omówiono pojecie ubóstwa energetycznego oraz przedstawiono prognozy wzrostu udziału zakupów energii i paliw w budżetach gospodarstw w świetle dalszych wzrostów ich cen w związku z wdrażaniem pakietu energetyczno-klimatycznego. Skrytykowano posługiwanie sie względnymi progami ubóstwa dochodowego i energetycznego, proponując w zamian bezwzgledne wskaźniki oparte na minimalnym koszyku dóbr niezbednych do przeżycia i minimalnej ilooci energii niezbednej do zapewnienia akceptowalnego standardu ogrzania mieszkania i funkcjonowania gospodarstwa domowego.
Within the historical context of attempting to provide cheap energy to countries of the European Coal and Steel Community, this article presents the negative effects for households of the current EU policy to combat “global warming”. The definition of income poverty is outlined based on a relative threshold of 60% of the households’ disposable income median with the social exclusion indicator adopted by Eurostat. Poland’s place in the poverty hierarchy is presented and compared to other EU countries. The analysis focuses attention on the drastic differences in poverty thresholds (in euro and in purchasing power standard PPS) between old and new EU members. The data shows the scale of increasing poverty and income inequalities in Poland (documented by the ratio of the V. and I. households’ income quintile and the Gini index). It provides a comparison of households in Poland and the EU with attention paid to the share of energy and fuels in household spending. The article also reviews the history of rising energy prices given in euros. It draws attention to the exceptionally high level of energy prices in Poland in PPS. Here, the central concept is the danger of fuel poverty, and forecasts of growth in the share of energy and fuels in the budgets of household expenditures are presented in light of further increases in energy prices due to the implementation of the energy-climate package. The article provides criticism of the use of relative income poverty and energy poverty thresholds. Based on this analysis, the article proposes the use of absolute indicators based on a minimum basket of goods necessary for household survival and the minimum amount of energy needed to ensure an acceptable standard of household heating and normal operation.

Następnie przedstawiono zasięg ubóstwa wśród dzieci w Polsce, z uwzględnieniem zmian w czasie i porównania z innymi krajami Unii Europejskiej. Zaprezentowano też dane dotyczące zasiłków rodzinnych, świadczeń z Funduszu Alimentacyjnego oraz prognozy dotyczące wpływu programu Rodzina 500+ na sytuację finansową rodzin z dziećmi. Obok ubóstwa monetarnego skupiono się także na kwestiach deprywacji materialnej – dostępu dzieci do zasobów niezbędnych do ich prawidłowego funkcjonowania biologicznego i społecznego. W szczególności omówiono kwestie niedożywienia i niedostatecznych warunków mieszkaniowych. Na koniec poruszono także zagadnienia społecznego postrzegania ubóstwa oraz konsekwencji ubóstwa dla dzieci.
The article presents data on the scale and characteristics of child poverty in Poland. As an introduction common definitions and indicators measuring poverty are explained. The paper then presents the scope and scale of poverty among children in Poland, taking into account changes in time and comparison with other countries of the European Union. The article also presents data on family allowances, benefits from the Alimony Fund and forecasts of the impact of the programme Family 500+ on the financial situation of families with children. In addition to monetary poverty, the article also focuses on the issues of material deprivation – children’s access to the resources necessary for the proper functioning on the biological and social level. In particular, issues of malnutrition and inadequate housing conditions are discussed. As a conclusion the topics of social perception of poverty and the consequences of poverty for children were raised.

Poverty rate is influenced by numerous factors. The determining ones are economic growth and the distribution of its effects. This article is therefore focused on the analysis of these effects and their relationship, as well as their influence on poverty at a regional level (NUTS 3, ‘kraj’). For the analysis of interactions between growth and distribution in correlation to poverty reduction, the Bourguignon model (the Poverty-Growth-Inequality triangle) and the growth incidence curve (GIC) were used. It was found that economic growth positively influences income inequalities as well as decreases the share of population under the poverty threshold in all regions. However, the development differs across regions. Based on the development and tendencies of the gross domestic product (GDP), income distribution and poverty it is obvious that economically strong regions (or their populations) dealt better with poverty during the crisis period.

Poverty, if it is not properly viewed by the public, may lead to the depersonalization of both poor and living in the midst of those who need help. Poverty is experienced by children in a specific way. They often suffer from hunger, they are undernourished, and they have limited access to a variety of goods, including culture and education. This, in turn, is often reflected in their self-esteem, a sense of self-dignity. The role of the school in fighting the poverty of the students is shown in this article. The existing forms of aid to poor students are presented, as well as the challenges facing the school in terms of helping marginalized students. It is also crucial for the teachers themselves to be trained in such a way that would promote not only the intellectual development of the students, but most of all – the pro-social attitudes and that would emphasize the value and dignity of a person.

Poverty is the major restraint of people to modern medicine in the developing world. This brought about therapeutic usage of medicinal plants which can be traced back to history as different cultures utilize plants and plant products from ancient time for preventing and treating of diseases. These People in the developing countries or rural areas solely depend on traditional medicine for their primary health care, in which they majorly use plants or their active principles. Upsurge resistance of avian viruses to commercial drugs is both developed and developing countries problem which imposed a search for new avian antiviral substances from other sources like medicinal plants. This led to the discovery of Cucumis metuliferus E. Mey. ex Naudin fruit which has been verified by local farmers and scientific researchers to cure various diseases and conditions including avian viruses like Newcastle Disease Virus (NDV), Infectious Bursal Disease Virus (IBDV), avian influenza and Hepatitis B Virus. This review is aimed at revealing the avian virus diseases that are treated with the Cucumis metuliferus E. Mey. ex Naudin, fruit and phytochemical constituents responsible for this antiviral activities.

The Department for International Development model is applied to an urban zone with the purpose of making an assessment of the livelihood of the district ’la Comuna 1’ in Medellin, Colombia, which has been recognised as the poorest and one of the most dangerous districts of the city. The case study presents both a quantitative analysis (macro) and qualitative (micro) analysis, as a mixed method that allows a more complete analysis and understanding of livelihood, and providing a deeper understanding of the district from the livelihood approach. The results indicate a stable growth of livelihood during the period of analysis.

Modern governments in modern states in third world countries are overwhelmed with social circumstances that have forced citizens to resort to self-help.

Concisely, poverty issues have continuously permeated the West Africa region’s fabric, and the challenges seem protracting. It has implications for mobility, (women) trafficking, and human security, among others. The quantitative approach adopted profiled index while evaluating and descriptive methods explained the content. Among other findings, lack of national data and proper immigration service is obvious. Thus, adequate data for national planning is recommended. Further, ongoing regional and national initiatives for possible integration and collaboration to address challenges are advocated.

Opis:
In the presented article the author presents the issue of empowerment understood as the fact of giving full rights to an individual or a group within the field of institutional influences from the point of view of a practician and long-time observer of the permanent changes in social support. Anthony Giddens, Pierre Bourdieu, Jurgen Habermas are just a few of public intellectuals manifesting interest in social policy and with whose opinions the author attempts to confront the field of practical influence of social services specialists. Moreover, the article attempts to describe paradoxes in social support in the form of unmasking facts, stereotypes, and camouflages in terms of organization of social support. The presented text, exemplifying the act of combating poverty, indicates problems appearing during application of the concept of empowerment in the field of social support. Numerous examples quoted in the presented text depict the paradoxical mechanisms in social activities, and thus the apparent subjectivity of social support clients, which disfavor empowerment.

Most people, especially in South Asia and Sub-Saharan Africa, suffer and die from lack of food, shelter, and medical care, whereas other people in rich countries are extremely well-off. Because of the globalization process neither individuals nor governments can claim to be unaware of what is happening in the Third World. In this paper I defend the claim that, since we are living in a “global village”, we have greater moral responsibility for poverty. Thus, our moral responsibility is less limited than it usually seems to be. However, we do not have to be extremely impartial, which is recommended by utilitarianism (Garrett Hardin, Peter Singer), concentrating only on the consequences of action and its utility (agent-neutral evaluation). Yet, what we can include in our moral evaluation of poverty are human rights and an individual point of view, which are defended by Amartya Sen’s capability approach and Thomist framework (agent-relative evaluation).

Opis:
The study analysed rural farming households’ poverty status and alleviating strategies in Benue State, Nigeria. The specific objectives of the study were to: describes the rural household heads’ socio-economic characteristics; determine the poverty status of the respondents and its determinants; and identify poverty alleviating strategies of the respondents. Data for the study was collected from 420 respondents selected using a multi-stage sampling technique. Data collected were analysed using descriptive statistics, the Foster-Greer-Thorbecke poverty measurement index, and the Binary Logistic regression model. The findings of the study revealed a very high incidence of poverty (70%), having a gap of 0.34, and severity of 0.17. Poverty in the area is positively associated with the age of the household head and household size, while gender, educational level, off-farm activity, membership of a group, farm size, and land ownership are negatively associated with poverty. The common poverty alleviation strategies identified were agricultural wage labour (48.6%), rental services (45.0%), and transportation business (36.7%). Therefore, it was recommended that the government and other stakeholders should initiate sustainable social protection schemes that can assist rural residents in alleviating poverty until their condition improves.

Recent studies on the relationship between financial development and poverty have been inconclusive. Some claim that, by allowing more entrepreneurs to obtain financing, financial development improves the allocation of capital, which has a particularly large impact on the poor. Others argue that it is primarily the rich and politically connected who benefit from improvements in the financial system. This paper looks at a sample of 37 countries in sub-Saharan Africa from 1992 through 2006. Its results suggest that financial deepening could widen income inequality and increase poverty, if not accompanied by stronger property rights. Similarly, interest rate and lending liberalization alone could be detrimental to the poor without institutional reforms, in particular stronger property rights and wider access to credit information.

Opis:
W niniejszym artykule podjęto próbę analizy wpływu ubóstwa energetycznego w aspekcie energii cieplnej na poziom bezpieczeństwa społecznego (polskich gospodarstw domowych), będącego sprawdzianem i miernikiem poziomu bezpieczeństwa energetycznego. Zagadnienie to przedstawione jest w trzech aspektach: – próba wyjaśnienia pojęcia ubóstwa energetycznego; – czynniki wpływające na poziom ubóstwa energetycznego w wymiarze energii cieplnej; – konsekwencje ubóstwa energetycznego na poziom bezpieczeństwa gospodarstw domowych. W celu głębszego ukazania problemu, posłużono się badawczą metodą ankietową oraz analityczno-syntetyczną.
This paper attempts to analyze the impact of energy poverty in terms of heat energy on the level of social security of Polish households being a sample and an indicator of the level of energy security. The issue is presented in three aspects: – Attempt to explain the concept of energy poverty; – Factors affecting the level of energy poverty in terms of heat energy; – How consequences of energy poverty influence the level of social security.

Opis:
This study investigated the influence of regional economic integration (REI) on poverty reduction and the revenue distribution in the West African Economic and Monetary Union (WAEMU) over the period 1994–2018. The second generation panel unit root tests and the Westerlund panel cointegration test were employed for preliminary analysis. The elasticities of the variables were investigated using the Pooled Mean Group (PMG) approach. The results showed that REI reduced income inequality and increased the poverty rate. Moreover, the causal relationship revealed the presence of a bidirectional relationship between REI and poverty. The feedback causal effect operated between REI and remittances, while unidirectional causality runs from REI to income inequality, from economic growth per capita to income inequality, from remittances to poverty, from the control of corruption to income inequality, and from remittances to economic growth. Consequently, the study recommends an easing of governmental regional integration restrictions and provision of subsidies that help to increase the volume of trade and financial development while reducing poverty in the union.

Opis:
Artykuł porusza problem duchowości miłosierdzia chrześcijańskiego wobec kultury wykluczania, ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem ubóstwa. W świetle najnowszych polskich badań omówione jest zjawisko wykluczenia i jego różne wymiary, następnie ukazane są podstawy miłosierdzia chrześcijańskiego. Ukazany jest także eklezjalny (kościelny, wspólnotowy) wymiar posługi miłosierdzia oraz trudności wewnętrzne i zewnętrzne w praktycznej realizacji tej idei w życiu codziennym i w konkretnych warunkach. Artykuł prowadzi do wniosku, że wykluczenie jest szczególną przestrzenią (sferą życia) domagającą się posługi miłosierdzia wobec potrzebujących.
The article raises a problem of the spirituality of Christian charity with a particular emphasis on poverty. Firstly, it focuses on the culture of exclusion and its many dimensions, drawing on the recent Polish studies. Following that it emphasises the foundations of Christian charity. Further, it goes on to presenting the ecclesial (Church and community based) dimension of the ministry of mercy and a number of both internal and external difficulties in the practical implementation of this idea in the specific conditions of daily life. The article concludes that exclusion is a particular area in life that calls for the ministry of charity towards the ones in need.
