This book brings together the latest thinking about poverty dynamics from diverse analytic traditions. While covering a vast body of conceptual and empirical knowledge about economic and social mobility, the ten chapters take the reader on compelling journeys of multigenerational accounts of three villages in Kanartaka, India; twelve years in the life of a street child in Burkina Faso; a shorter term comparative examination of country-wide experiences with mobility in rich nations; and much more.
