What are the theories of poverty?
I see. And what is the structural theory?
The structural theory suggests that poverty is a result of broader economic and political structures that create and sustain inequality. This theory argues that poverty is not just an individual problem, but rather a systemic issue that can only be addressed through fundamental changes to the structure of society. Some examples of structural causes of poverty include low wages, lack of access to education and healthcare, and unequal distribution of wealth and resources.
