What if poverty isn't a failure of the system… but the system itself? In a world of excess, billions are still trapped in cycles of hunger, displacement, and despair. But poverty is not a natural disaster it's a political and economic choice. This short but powerful book dives deep into the roots of global poverty, exposing the hidden mechanisms that keep inequality alive from corporate greed and corrupt governance to the media's silence and the West's selective compassion. With a clear voice and sharp insight, this book challenges you to see beyond charity, beyond statistics, and beyond borders. It is a call to awareness and to action. Inside you'll discover: • The real causes of systemic poverty • How modern capitalism sustains global inequality • The role of international institutions in maintaining the status quo • Why poverty persists even in "developed" nations • What real change would actually look like Whether you're a student, an activist, or simply someone who refuses to look away, this book will leave you informed, unsettled and motivated. Poverty is not accidental. It's engineered. And we must unbuild it.
