Africa/Global: Global Action against Poverty?

Today, national development programs have sunk into oblivion, as well as development economy. One does not find any definition of economic development in the recent documents of the international organisations. There is only ‘human development’ or ‘poverty reduction’. The economy has become a part of nature, with laws that have to be respected but that we cannot change. All we can do is to try to have these laws function properly in order to help the poor.
