If this situation is already frail, even more so, knowing that poor countries are poor societies, but fertile land and rich
It is difficult to understand how poverty is a concept that is reproduced from cycle to cycle with the same issues always consistent regardless of the poor country studied. In 2005, The New York Times wrote a report based on a study by leading economists who had studied the phenomenon of poverty in Bangladesh, the report highlighted as key to poverty levels in one of the world’s poorest countries The fact that only 15% of Bangladesh’s population controls 2 / 3 of land and 85% had nothing. Also, new technologies applicable to the production processes were completely banned for that percentage of the population, and only had access to big capital credit and tools needed to exploit the earth through the use of new technologies.
This situation is repeated in all countries, but there’s more. Let’s talk about foreign aid. The aid from abroad are sold by the military government, the middle class and big business. In conclusion, the report set out the high fertility of the lands of Bangladesh and its potential for a society to feed 3 times higher than today.

There is no shortage of candidates for inclusion in a list of challenges facing humanity at the start of the twenty-first century. Over the past two decades, globalisation has contributed to impressive gains in poverty reduction.
Yet we live in a world of unprecedented disparities in wealth. Progress towards the international development goals in areas such as poverty reduction, nutrition, child survival and maternal health has fallen far short of the targets set for 2015, even in many of the countries that have secured high economic growth. Youth unemployment has reached record levels.
While global economic integration and the spread of technology, capital and ideas have increased prosperity, growth has been uneven and unbalanced. Building a new globalisation will require not just new mechanisms for curtailing the power of financial markets, but also a more equitable pattern of economic growth and a new approach to ecology.
