Begrippenlijst bij Challenging Global Inequality van Greig e.a.

Begrippen hoofdstuk 1

  • Bruto Binnenlands Product : De totale geldwaarde van alle geproduceerde goederen en diensten gedurende een bepaalde periode, binnen een bepaald land/gebied.

  • Gini index: Een meetinstrument dat wordt gebruikt om de inkomensongelijkheid binnen een land te meten. Waarbij landen met een perfecte verdeling het getal 0 krijgen en de landen met een perfecte ongelijke verdeling een 0.

  • Paradox van de moderniteit: De welvaart groeit in de wereld, maar deze groei zorgt daarnaast voor een groei van de armoede.

  • Endogeen perspectief: Bij dit perspectief wordt geconcentreerd op de individualistische kanten van armoede. Er wordt gekeken naar de culturele, psychologische en materiële bijdragen van de armen.

  • Exogeen perspectief : Dit is een structureel perspectief waarbij wordt gekeken naar de relaties tussen verschillende “levels of analysis” en daarmee naar de relatie tussen armoede en welvaart.
