Current Affairs for IAS Exams - 20 September 2013 Posted: 20 Sep 2013 04:05 AM PDT Current Affairs for IAS Exams - 20 September 2013 Booker Prize now open for all authors writing in English The Man Booker Prize, described as the "the most important and influential award for literary fiction in the English speaking world" might from now on actually qualify for that claim. According to an announcement by Jonathan Taylor, Chair of the Booker Prize, the prize will from 2014 be expanded to include writers in English from any part of the world provided their books have been published in the United Kingdom. Thus far the Booker Prize was for literary fiction by authors from the Commonwealth, the Republic of Ireland and Zimbabwe. The enlargement of the Booker's catchment is expected to put more pressure not just on writers who now have more competition, but on judges too, now that its doors have been open to competing fiction from the cross-Atlantic English-speaking nation that has its own distinct and vibrant literary tradition. The idea of instituting a separate Booker prize for English fiction for U.S. authors alone was considered but dismissed as it would end up diluting the prestige of the prize. read more IAS Exams Online Coaching.

Ans. Poverty is deprivation of basic needs that determine the quality of life-food clothing, shelter, safe drinking water etc. It also includes the deprivation of opportunities to health, education, skills, employment etc. Many different factors have been cited to explain why poverty occurs. No single explanation has gained universal acceptance. The factors responsible for poverty include: Historical factors, for example imperialism and colonialism. Overpopulation.
