Amnesty international Secretary General Irene Khan claims that economic analyses do not provide a full picture and economic solutions alone cannot end the problems of poverty. In a bracing argument enriched with her personal experiences and case studies from around the world Khan sees poverty as the world’s worst human rights crisis because it traps people in a vicious cycle of deprivation insecurity exclusion and voicelessness. She argues that the foremost challenge is the empowerment of poor people and makes a passionate and urgent plea for action to uphold human rights in the fight to end poverty.
