In his study “Can the West Save Africa,” William Easterly recognizes that there is a dual opinion on the ‘save Africa’ movement where one identifies that social change is very much possible and that it is upon political leaders and experts from wealthier countries to ignite the movement and achieve development, while another views that while change is possible it can only be gradual at most and that self-organization, creative ideas and measured political reforms are the answer but all of these are constricted by the norms and traditions of any given place. Easterly calls the first kind as the transformational approach while the latter is the marginal approach. The awareness over the need to be able to aid out in the efforts to end poverty can be seen in many forms. There are organizations with the primary objective of focusing on poverty. There have concerts, fundraisings, special editions of magazines, music albums and other alternative means to be able to contribute financially in the fight against poverty. But the most important in all of these efforts is the steps that must be taken by states that are in the capacity to make real change.
