The political economy of urban poverty

The Political Economy of Urban Poverty is a critical examination of urban poverty, exploring its origins, characteristics, and proposed solutions. Charles Sackrey challenges prevailing narratives, suggesting that urban poverty is more severe and widespread than official statistics indicate. The book critiques existing data and theories, particularly concerning poverty among urban Black populations, and assesses the efficacy of various poverty alleviation approaches. Sackrey evaluates the two predominant antipoverty strategies over the last forty years—liberal reforms and revolutionary changes—highlighting their respective strengths and limitations. With insights gained from his support of both approaches at different times, Sackrey offers a nuanced analysis of their past effectiveness and future potential.
