Chow, Stefen, 1980- photographer, Lin, Huiyi, photographer

نظرة عامة

\"Poverty, in its universality, seems intuitively understandable and yet, as a global issue, its solutions remain difficult to grasp. What does it mean to live on the poverty line? What does this fateful line below which the economic world describes people as 'poor' represent? The artist duo Chow and Lin explored these questions by creating this award-winning visual comparison that encapsulates an idea of poverty and its worldwide dimensions with regard to food. The eye-opening photographs show what people in 36 countries and territories can afford to buy at local markets from the sum of money that defines the official poverty line--as assessed per person, per day. The texts by Armida Salsiah Alisjahbana, Andrea Brandolini and John Micklewright, and Lucas Chancel shed scientific light on the problem from an economic and political point of view, and issue a call to action.\"--back cover.
