Each chapter weaves anthropology, history, and systems thinking to reveal what we gained and what we lost at every turn.

    This New Edition of This Is What Inequality Looks Like by Teo You Yenn features a new Afterword by the author, and a Foreword by Kwok Kian Woon, Professor of Sociology at the Nanyang Technological University, Singapore. 
     
    What is poverty? What is inequality? How are they connected? How are they reproduced? How might they be overcome? Why should we try? 
     
    The way we frame our questions shapes the way we see solutions. This book does what appears to be a no-brainer task, but one that is missing and important: it asks readers to pose questions in different ways, to shift the vantage point from which they view ‘common sense,’ and in so doing, to see themselves as part of problems and potential solutions. This is a book about how seeing poverty entails confronting inequality. It is about how acknowledging poverty and inequality leads to uncomfortable revelations about our society and ourselves. And it is about how once we see, we cannot, must not, unsee.

    Responsibility is the cornerstone of a meaningful life, forming the basis for personal growth, trust, and fulfillment. It is the ability to own one's actions, decisions, and their consequences without shifting blame onto others. This chapter examines the intricate nature of responsibility and its profound influence on our character and relationships. At its core, responsibility involves acknowledging the power and impact of our choices. When individuals accept responsibility, they embrace a mindset that values integrity, self-discipline, and accountability. This mindset is critical for personal development and paves the way for a more respectful and trustworthy society. 
    The concept of responsibility is not merely about following rules or fulfilling duties; it extends into every aspect of our lives. It is evident in the way we interact with family, friends, and colleagues, as well as in our professional endeavors. When we take responsibility, we are better equipped to learn from our mistakes and strive for continuous improvement. This process of learning and growing is essential, as it helps us understand the importance of our actions and their potential impact on others. Embracing responsibility means accepting that our decisions have consequences, both positive and negative, and that we are accountable for managing these outcomes. 
    Moreover, responsibility instills a sense of purpose and direction. When individuals consciously choose to be responsible, they align their actions with their values and goals. This alignment brings about clarity in decision-making and helps build trust within communities. Trust is a vital element in every relationship, as it enables open communication and fosters deeper connections. In this context, being responsible is not a burden, but a privilege that empowers us to contribute positively to society.
