A team of anthropologists, economists, geographers, political scientists, social workers, and sociologists examine the leading explanations for why poverty persists in rural America. Their findings discredit established theories such as the culture of poverty and suggest new explanations for rural poverty and new directions for antipoverty programs
Gene F. Summers is Professor Emeritus of Rural Sociology at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
