Tema Para Discussão no Fórum Social Mundial
Redução de pobreza e melhoras na distribuição de renda no mundo, conforme os gráficos ao lado:
"
World poverty is falling. This column presents new estimates of the world’s income distribution and suggests that world poverty is disappearing faster than previously thought. From 1970 to 2006, poverty fell by 86% in South Asia, 73% in Latin America, 39% in the Middle East, and 20% in Africa. Barring a catastrophe, there will never be more than a billion people in poverty in the future history of the world."
Estes são os efeitos da "globalização neoliberal excludente", conforme o estudo de Pinkovskiy e Sala-i-Martin. Quais são as alternativas ao capitalismo e como elas melhoram esta dinâmica? Como fazer com que as alternativas propostas não sejam a catástrofe que irá aumentar a pobreza?
