Building Decent Societies
This book builds the case for a comprehensive social security system to be developed in all countries -- to eliminate desperate conditions of poverty, reverse growing inequality and sustain economic growth. It gives the history of the rich countries in meeting poverty and shows how the strategies in the poor countries can be greatly improved.
