520 |a “The book will appeal to academics across the social sciences, as well as policymakers and practitioners grappling notions and experiences of poverty and hardship. I applaud the editors in bringing together such a rich mix of contributing authors with different backgrounds and life-trajectories, which has resulted in a brilliant toolbox-offering of lived experiences from some places, with lessons for other places.” -Professor Martin Jones, VC of Staffordshire University, UK Action on Poverty in the UK is an original and significant statement on the lived experiences of contemporary capitalism. Edited by academics at Staffordshire University with a shared and important project of co-production and participatory practice, this book is the start of the action on poverty conversation—a conversation that covers novel conceptual, methodological, political and policy strands. It is grounded in the real-world struggles and strategies of social and economic development.
