What is Jeffrey Sachs's central theory on poverty?
My central idea is that poverty is often a trap caused by a complex web of interconnected factors, including geographic disadvantages, poor health, lack of infrastructure, and weak institutions. These aren't just individual failures but systemic issues. The 'End of Poverty' is achievable through targeted investments in healthcare, education, infrastructure, and good governance, coupled with smart macroeconomic policies and international aid coordinated effectively.
