Poverty—The Causes• Overpopulation : Overpopulation, the situation of having large
numbers of people with too few resources and too little space• Global Distribution of Resources: Colonialism accounts for much
of the unequal distribution of resources in the world economy. • Inadequate Education and Employment: Illiteracy and lack of
education are common in poor countries. Governments of developing countries often cannot afford to provide for good public schools, especially in rural areas
• Environmental Degradation: In many parts of the world, environmental degradation—the deterioration of the natural environment, including the atmosphere, bodies of water, soil, and forests—is an important cause of poverty
• Corrupt Governments: In many countries the economy is controlled by the government and corrupt government officials do not spread the wealth evenly to citizens
