Ending Poverty is a collection of Minsky’s writing that spans almost three decades of his published and previously unpublished work on the necessity of combating poverty through full employment policies—through job creation, not welfare. Although Hyman P. Minsky is best known for his ideas about financial instability, he was equally concerned with the question of how to create a stable economy that puts an end to poverty for all who are willing and able to work.
In this book, Hyman Minsky provides a detailed series of essays on the link between:
Poverty and joblessness
The value of full employment policies
The potential difficulties that might arise
