ASAP Book (Monograph) of the Year Award 2023:
Olivier De Schutter, Hugh Frazer, Anne-Catherine Guio, Eric Marlier (2023). Escape from Poverty: Breaking the Vicious Cycles Perpetuating Disadvantage. Policy Press. doi.org/10.51952/9781447370611
The perpetuation of poverty across generations damages lives. It weakens social cohesion and the economy, and undermines environmental sustainability. Drawing on a wide variety of sources and academic disciplines, along with lived experiences, this ASAP award-winning book examines why poverty is continued across generations and what needs to be done to eradicate it. Challenging the myths and prejudices about poverty that hinder progress, it calls for a comprehensive approach based on ensuring real equality of opportunity for all. It stresses the need to intervene early to combat child poverty and break the vicious cycles that perpetuate poverty and disadvantage. In this video, the authors summarise some of the main arguments they make in the book.
