Abstract
There is some evidence in favour of the view that there has been an accentuation of poverty
in many parts of the world in the last few decades. However there has been a consistent improvement in the commonly identified parameters of quality of life, e.g. longevity and literacy in practically every country in the world. But this progress has been sharply uneven with widely varying magnitudes of change among the different countries.
