Overview

Esther Duflo y Abhijit Banerjee, ganadores del Premio Nobel de Economía 2019.

El libro que cambiará nuestra manera de pensar sobre la pobreza y lo que debemos hacer para aliviarla.

¿Cómo se vive con menos de un dólar al día? ¿Por qué los microcréditos  resultan útiles pero no son el milagro que algunos esperaban? ¿Por qué  los pobres dejan pasar las campañas de vacunación gratuita pero pagan  por medicinas que a menudo no necesitan? ¿Por qué sus hijos pueden ir a  la escuela año tras año y no aprender nada? ¿Por qué no siempre invierten en obtener más calorías, sino calorías que saben mejor?

Nuestra tendencia a reducir a los pobres a un conjunto de clichés nos ha  impedido hasta ahora comprender los problemas a los que se enfrentan a  diario. Dado que poseen tan poco, hemos asumido que no hay nada de  interés en su vida económica. Las políticas gubernamentales destinadas a  ayudarles muchas veces fracasan porque se fundamentan en suposiciones erradas con respecto a sus circunstancias y su conducta.

Repensar la pobreza supone un revolucionario giro en el modo de abordar la lucha global contra la pobreza. Sus autores, dos consagrados  economistas del MIT, han acudido directamente a los protagonistas para  comprender cómo funciona de verdad la economía de los pobres, cuáles son  sus motivaciones y aspiraciones. Los resultados de sus observaciones contradicen muchas de nuestras creencias más arraigadas.

El innovador planteamiento de este libro empieza por cambiar las  preguntas. A partir de ahí, ofrece las respuestas y, con ellas, un gran potencial transformador y una guía esencial para políticos, activistas y  cualquier persona preocupada por construir un mundo sin desigualdad.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

The winners of the Nobel Prize in Economics upend the most common assumptions about how economics works in this gripping and disruptive portrait of how poor people actually live.

Why do the poor borrow to save? Why do they miss out on free life-saving immunizations, but pay for unnecessary drugs? In Poor Economics, Abhijit V. Banerjee and Esther Duflo, two award-winning MIT professors, answer these questions based on years of field research from around the world. Called "marvelous, rewarding" by the Wall Street Journal, the book offers a radical rethinking of the economics of poverty and an intimate view of life on 99 cents a day. Poor Economics shows that creating a world without poverty begins with understanding the daily decisions facing the poor.
