The poor in the developing world grew their consumption twice
as fast as the world as a whole between 1980 and 2000. The
Chinese are ten times as rich, one-third as fecund and twentyeight
years longer-lived than they were fifty years ago. Even
Nigerians are twice as rich, 25 per cent less fecund and nine
years longer-lived than they were in 1955. Despite a doubling of
the world popu lation, even the raw number of people living in
absolute poverty (defined as less than a 1985 dollar a day) has
fallen since the 1950s. The percentage living in such absolute
poverty has dropped by more than half – to less than 18 per cent.
That number is, of course, still all too horribly high, but the
trend is hardly a cause for despair: at the current rate of decline,
it would hit zero around 2035 – though it probably won’t. The
United Nations estimates that poverty was reduced more in the
last fifty years than in the previous 500.
