“The End of Poverty?” is a 2008 film by Philippe Diaz that traces the history of global poverty from 1492 and the beginning of colonisation to the neoliberal, neocolonial economic policies of today. Featuring numerous interviews ranging from indigenous workers in Bolivia to the former vice-president of the World Bank, this film details the way the Global South has been systematically privatised and pillaged and the majority of its people locked into profoundly unjust economic conditions, facing generation after generation of debt.
