Abstract

Poverty in inner cities and rural areas of ‘rich’ America is shocking for many which remains invisible to policymakers. It is clear that if pervasive and intransigent poverty can exist in America, it can exist anywhere. This paper focuses on actualizing Asad Zaman’s (2018) suggestions in order to move forward so we can create and implement sustainability. It also tries to integrate his suggestions into the broader movement to Rethink and Reconceptualize Economics in order to effectuate a broad-based policy for the eradication of inequality and poverty. مظاهر الفقر في المدن الداخلية والمناطق الريفية في أمريكا "الغنية" أمر مروع بالنسبة للكثيرين وكأنه لا يزال غير مرئي لصانعي القرارات. ومن الواضح أنه إذا كان الفقر المنتشر والعضال يمكن أن يوجد في أمريكا، فإنه يمكن أن يكون موجودا في أي مكان. تركز هذه الورقة على تحقيق اقتراحات أسد زمان (2018) من أجل المضي قدما حتى نتمكن من إنشاء وتنفيذ الاستدامة. ونحاول في هذه الورقة أيضا دمج اقتراحاته في الحركة الأوسع نطاقا لإعادة التفكير وإعادة تصور علم الاقتصاد من أجل وضع سياسة عريضة القاعدة للقضاء على مشكلتي عدم المساواة والفقر.
