POVERTY ABROAD expresses itself in per capita incomes below 00 a year, in savings rates near 5 percent, in an overwhelming scarcity of capital, inadequate educational structures, and Malthusian pressures on the land. Accidents of nature or climatic conditions have here and there endowed some regions with exportable natural resources oil, mineral ore deposits, or particular tropical foods and other primary commodities. But even such prosperous enclaves have usually had a severely limited impact on the general well-being of the societies in which they are located.
