This special issue presents work that examines the production of and challenges to poverty through political, economic, and cultural practices; illuminates the ways in which discourses on poverty and wealth have been shaped, controlled, and deployed; and suggests how scholars on the left might intervene in public debates on the production of poverty and wealth.
