POVERTY REDUCTION: A NEVER ENDING HOMEWORK IN RURAL DEVELOPMENT
Journal Title: Academic Research International - Year 2018, Vol 9, Issue 3
Abstract
Poverty is an interesting study in rural development. Rural development and poverty just like two sides of coins that cannot be clearly separated each from other. It seems very difficult for poverty to escape from rural areas, although many poverty reduction programs have been being implemented by central and local government and related stakeholders. That is why poverty is still becomes very important concerns for many parties. This research aims to look at poverty reduction in the rural areas that still become one of the main problems in rural development by literature study. Rural poverty reduction is not a single act, but it deals with a lot of variables that have a significant influence on the success of the program. Many stakeholders participate in that program with their own priorities and hidden interest, including multilateral donor agencies that sometimes will create poverty reproduction. Research questions of this research will be answered by analyzing some relevant literature such as journals, books, and other related documents.This paper concludes that the intervention of multilateral donor agencies makes the poverty as a commodity to expand the capitalist hegemony and the developing or poor countries are trapped with the unended multilateral commitment. The impact is developing countries have no freedom in creating and implementing their own designed policies and priorities, but they should be a part of the international agenda and interest. In this case the programs of poverty reductionin the rural areas will not be able to reach the poorest but tend to re-create (reproduction) the rural poverty itself although multilateral donor agencies claim to have succeeded on that program.
