"The number of people living a precarious existence has been increasing in many countries of the world, with hunger all too widespread." (MONTHLY REVIEW) The author stresses that "enhancing the well-being of a country's poor depends on development based primarily on the nation's own human and natural resources and directed in a way to benefit its people--even though in most cases this will go against the wishes of international capital."
