Problems and Solutions in the Fight Against Urban Poverty

Introduction of problems and solutions to combat urban poverty - The emergence of capitalism and the resulting economic inequality can not talk about contemporary poverty without first talking about capitalism. Please start my thesis. Capitalism evolved from feudalism. The feudal system was incorporated into the Western European society hundreds of years ago. Under the feudal system, farmers worked on the land and handed over the remaining production to the aristocracy. The nobility owned the land and accumulated surplus.

Development involves mitigation (or elimination) of poverty. Poverty interacts with other low-development issues. In rural and urban communities, poverty can vary widely. In urban areas, people are often able to receive health and education, but many of the problems caused by poverty are exacerbated by problems such as overcrowding, unsanitary conditions, pollution, and dangerous housing . In rural areas, it is difficult to receive education, health and many other services, but people usually live in a healthy and safe environment.

Discussions on poverty in the United States often mistakenly focus on urban areas. Poverty in urban areas is a unique issue, but the poverty rate in rural areas is always higher than in urban areas. Indeed, throughout the 1950s and 1960s, rural poverty levels were often twice those in urban areas. The relationship between work and poverty is different. In the early 1980s, the employment rate of rural poor people exceeded 15% in urban areas. Ever since, more and more poor people in rural areas are unemployed. This trend is consistent with the other patterns described below.

Poverty in the city is another challenge. Urbanization of poverty - The urban poverty rate is slowing down than in rural areas - almost all developing countries are expected to succeed in poverty reduction. Urban economies create new opportunities, poor people in rural areas are often trying to improve their lives. Distorted urban labor markets can easily lead to excessive urbanization and lack of effective public effort to promote agriculture and rural development, indeed, many developing countries will further I will tax the rural economy. The elimination of long-term policy bias in economic taxation and public expenditure is still a top priority for poverty alleviation. Equally serious is the regulation and urban policy on immigrants who provide inappropriate service to poor urban residents including migrants to rural areas.
