It examines the definitions, causes, and measurements of poverty while addressing its impact on vulnerable groups such as women, children, and marginalized communities in India. The work delves into historical and modern theories of poverty, the politics surrounding it, and the international and domestic legal instruments aimed at its alleviation. Through detailed discussions on rights such as education, work, health, and shelter, the book emphasizes the importance of law in social justice and poverty eradication. It also critiques policies and suggests reforms, making it a valuable resource for understanding poverty's multidimensional aspects and the legal system's role in addressing them.
