Abstract

Of the countless people around the world enduring deprivation and tremendous suffering from poverty and malnutrition, hundreds of millions are children. But research on poverty and development has only relatively recently begun to focus on this aspect of global poverty. Featuring contributions from leading researchers, this book examines how child poverty and well‐being are conceptualized, defined, and measured and presents regional and national studies of child poverty from around the world. Global Child Poverty and Well‐Being is an urgent call to arms for researchers and policymakers to confront one of the world's great ongoing tragedies.
