The Poverty of Nations is a study about the status and trends in human well-being as it varies from nation to nation worldwide. A basic premise is that human well-being comes from a nation's physical, social, economic, and political macro systems. A metric of descriptive statistics is built for each system, and then it is aggregated into one metric to gauge the level of human well-being in each nation. The metric describes human well-being in 1960 and 2010 to seek an understanding of the status and trend of human well-being in 151 of the world's nations. Which nations are meeting the United Nation's Millennium Development goals, and which are not?
Robert J. Tata is professor emeritus from the Department of Geography and Geology at Florida Atlantic University in Boca Raton, Florida. An original member of the Florida Atlantic University faculty, Tata has studied, researched, taught, traveled, and written about the economic development of Latin America for more than fifty years.
