Globalization is considered as an important element in the reform structure and it also indicates the trend of growing worldwide interconnectedness. The changing international scenario has been advancing with vigour. It embodies integration of international markets for goods, services, technology, finance, and to a certain extent labour and also impinges upon the process of structural change, underpinned by transformation from agricultural to an industrial economy, with critical implications and concomitants for growth, equity, and poverty. There has been increasing pressure both nationally and internationally to open the economies’ demand pursuit of the shift from state to market based forces which will affect the relationship ranging from resource endowments to the dynamics of growth, use of surplus, agriculture and industry and interaction with reference to different socio-economic groups and changes brought about by liberalization and globalization. In this book, an attempt has been made to review the impact of globalization on poverty, with special reference to developing countries. The nature of influence of globalization on the trends of trade transformation and utilization of resources has also been dealt with. A critical appraisal of the policies and programmes pertaining to poverty at different levels has also been attempted and the progress achieved has been reviewed.
