Marian L. Tupy, \u201cGlobalization and Poverty’s Unprecedented Decline: The last forty years have seen a massive and historically unprecedented decline in global poverty<\/a>\u201d HumanProgress.org (November 22, 2016).<\/p>\n

Reminder of good news: This article was originally published in 2016, but this under-reported good news is worth repeating. \u201c[T]he economic liberalization and globalization that started in the late 1970s and accelerated in the 1980s, has led to a massive and historically unprecedented decline in global poverty. Contrary to much of the public perception, liberalization and globalization have not led to an increase in U.S. poverty rates, which continue to fluctuate within a comparatively narrow and, by historical standards, low, band. \u2026 In 1981, the year Ronald Reagan became America’s 40th President, 44.3 percent of the world lived in extreme poverty (i.e., less than $1.90 per person per day). Last year [2015], it was 9.6 percent. That’s a decline of 78 percent.\u201d<\/p>\n
