Synopsis

Poor Economics: A Radical Rethinking of the Way to Fight Global Poverty is a landmark work by Nobel laureates Abhijit Banerjee and Esther Duflo. Using randomized controlled trials, they examine why conventional development policies often fail and identify small, evidence-based interventions — from microcredit to deworming programs — that can make a measurable difference in lifting people out of poverty.
