Poverty can only be fought through growth that spreads wealth in societies. It is important that the growth is distributed across regions and social classes and is not concentrated among the rich. Strong economic growth cannot continue for many consecutive years except in exceptional cases. Growth is very important to meet the living needs of the population and improve the standard of living. A return to growth means stability in societies, civil peace, improved relations between people, and the development of infrastructure, as well as superstructure. Everything has an end, and the economic cycle must inevitably occur. Growth is currently slowing in most countries. The main reasons for Western economic growth for decades were population growth and increased productivity through research and development.
