Poverty Capital: Microfinance and the Making of Development
Roy, Ananya (University of California, USA)
This is a text about poverty but it does not study the poor and the powerless. Instead it studies those who manage poverty. It sheds light on how powerful institutions control 'capital', or circuits of profit and investment, as well as 'truth', or authoritative knowledge about poverty.
