The End of Poverty

Economic Possibilities for Our Time
Book • 2005
In this book, Jeffrey Sachs argues that extreme poverty, defined as incomes of less than one dollar per day, can be eradicated globally by 2025.

He proposes the use of 'clinical economics,' a methodical analysis and tailored solutions for each country's economic problems.

The book emphasizes the importance of achieving the United Nations' Millennium Development Goals, increasing development aid, and addressing various factors such as government corruption, lack of infrastructure, and health issues.

Sachs also presents case studies from countries like Bolivia, Poland, Russia, and several African nations to illustrate his approach.
