Introduction.... Lets start....

In every day life we see a lot of people living in streets, with torn clothes, begging with children in their hands, cleaning human toilets for their livelihood, living in roofless houses etc. We feel for them and give them 5 or 10 rupees or at the maximum donate some money to orphanages or some NGOs which takes care of the poor. All these are not happening only today, but ever since the recorded history began. Millions of such acts of philanthropy by millions of such altruists over centuries, have neither ended poverty nor equipped these people to counter poverty. In fact, poverty has not just sustained but has increased over the centuries!!!!

Why? What is the reason? If poverty is associated with only material conditions of human beings, then poverty should be ended by now. But it is not happening. Why?

What are the contradictions in these acts and other social, economic and political processes in the society which stops the above in becoming a reality? To eradicate poverty is it a prerequisite that the society should be devoid of contradictions? If yes, then is it possible to create a society which is devoid of creating contradictions through it's processes? If yes, then what is that society and how to create it? If no, then how to nullify the resultant contradictions in existing societies so that it do not create or sustain poverty? What are the required tools that has to be placed to negate such forces which create and sustain poverty?

We, a group of like minded individuals have set out to research on these contradictions. The project has a start date and does not have a end date!!!!!!! We will continue to research, understand the society as it is and try to find the contradictions prevailing in the social, economic and political processes of different societies and those contradictions which sustains poverty, as long as we find the reason for the same!!!! Reason and the solution is intertwined and as soon as we find the reason, the solution automatically establishes itself!!!! Might sound ambitious and unrealistic, but we are committed to give our heart and soul into the project and find a way which would help in the transformation of the society. We believe in Marx's words that ' He who no longer finds pleasure in building the world with his own forces, in being a world-creator instead of revolving forever inside his own skin, on him the spirit has spoken its anathema'(Karl Marx: Doctoral thesis).
