The World Bank has recently estimated the number of people in absolute poverty in the Third World at around 780 million. Half of them are in South Asia. The other half lives in East Asia, sub-Saharan Africa, Latin America, North Africa and the Middle East. Roughly 80 percent of these poor live in the countryside, mostly as small farmers and landless laborers. Poverty is thus an essentially rural phenomenon.

In the first place, we may start with the strong presumption that Colonel Openshaw had some very strong reason for leaving America. Men at his time of life do not change all their habits, and exchange willingly the charming climate of Florida for the lonely life of an English provincial town. His extreme love of solitude in England suggests the idea that he was in fear of someone or something, so we may assume as a working hypothesis that it was fear of something or someone which drove him from America.

A. Minimum Wage The non-economist’s view of the minimum wage seems to be that it forces greedy employers pay poor workers more money, making all workers better off. The “conventional” economic view of an increase in the minimum wage is that, as with most public policies, there are winners (those unskilled workers who keep their jobs and earn more) and losers (those workers who lose their jobs). What is the “unconventional” view and how does it alter that calculus of gains and losses?
