The Poverty of Nations
A Sustainable Solution
Book •
'The Poverty of Nations: A Sustainable Solution' is a book co-authored by Wayne Grudem and Barry Asmus that explores the multifaceted causes of national poverty and proposes solutions rooted in biblical principles.
The authors argue that economic factors alone cannot fully explain the disparities in wealth among nations.
Instead, they emphasize the crucial role of cultural and moral values, such as work ethic, property rights, and the rule of law.
The book analyzes how these values, when aligned with biblical teachings, can foster economic growth and alleviate poverty.
Grudem and Asmus offer practical recommendations for policymakers, business leaders, and individuals seeking to promote sustainable development.
Through rigorous research and a clear presentation of ideas, 'The Poverty of Nations' provides a comprehensive framework for understanding and addressing the challenges of global poverty.
