Sixty percent of humanity - some four-point-three billion people - live in debilitating poverty. The standard development narrative suggests that alleviating poverty in poor countries is a matter of getting the internal policies right, combined with aid from rich countries.

Global inequality doesn't just exist; it has been created.

They’re working harder year upon year not to get ahead but merely to stay apace. For them, the American dream appears to be slipping farther and farther away. Beneath the resentment is something else: The misleading statistics that shape our understanding of reality are steering powerful policymakers to make misguided decisions at the federal, state, and local levels alike. And, for most Americans, the results continue to be catastrophic.

« ils naquirent libres et égaux » est un roman qui relate, avec talent et audace, un pan de la vie des étrangers en France. Certes, tous ne quittents pas leurs pays d'origine par plaisir, mais tous sont portés par un rêve : vivre « libres et égaux ».
