From Aid to Solidarity - Publishing Academic
Ever feel like "helping" the poor just isn't working? This book dives deep into why that is. It's about how good intentions can backfire, and how power dynamics keep countries stuck in poverty. We explore the hidden costs of aid, the scramble for resources, and how the West often profits from the problems it claims to solve.
From land grabs to climate change impacts, the book exposes the harsh realities many nations face. But it's not all doom and gloom! We look at real-world examples of countries breaking free, and offer solutions for a more just and sustainable future. Think less charity, more solidarity. If you're interested in global issues, this book will challenge your assumptions and offer a fresh perspective.
