SamenvattingThere is a ‘new bottom billion’, consisting of 960 million poor people, or 72% of the world’s poor, living in middle-income countries. In 1990, 93% of the world’s poor lived in low-income countries. This raises new questions for aid and development policy. This article discusses these questions and argues that a new development narrative is needed that focuses on poor people, rather than poor countries.
