The book focuses mainly on the developing world, because in these countries the problem of poverty is not merely an issue of underdevelopment: it is a matter of extreme deprivation. The content begins with an outline of the current situation, as well as a historical review of the profound impact of fundamental factors on human well-being.
It then focuses on the role of human interaction regarding flows of trade, capital, and knowledge. It also highlights the differences in the developmental paths of emerging economies, aiming to better understand the concepts of development and the Millennium Development Goals.
Furthermore, the authors’ primary concern is linking human development to issues such as inequalities, health, demographics, education, and poverty, as well as the connection between geographical location and human interaction in determining future prosperity.
The Greek edition of the volume is supplemented by Chapter 20, which deals with issues of international development aid, authored by Sotiris Petropoulos, a lecturer in the Department of Political Science and International Relations at the University of the Peloponnese.
