AbstractInequalities within and between countries continue to grow as a result of globalization. Although traditional anti‐poverty efforts from governments and NGOs have had their respective successes, poverty continues to exist in every country, particularly in rural areas where there are fewer resources to support socioeconomic development. Private enterprises may use their strengths, including market knowledge and accessibility to various resources, to develop innovative business models that can provide viable and effective solutions to social problems such as poverty. This article examines a case study of a poverty alleviation initiative by Jingdong (JD). The results indicate that JD utilizes industrial poverty alleviation to empower local enterprises. Through the use of education and training, finance, and employment support, JD builds an ecosystem that provides local enterprises high‐quality employees and reliable logistics with which to conduct business. As a result, the JD model enables local enterprises to compensate farmers with sufficient wages that can reduce poverty and improve their well‐being, creating a mutually beneficial solution for all stakeholders. The findings demonstrate the potential of a private enterprise to reduce poverty in a way that might not be otherwise independently achieved by government and NGOs.

Poverty has been one of the most acute social issues in the history of mankind. After the founding of the People's Republic of China (the PRC), the Chinese Communist Party and the government adopted the eradication of poverty and the pursuit of common prosperity as their mission and goal. The practice of poverty eradication has gone through three stages, i.e. relief based poverty alleviation, system reform based poverty alleviation and targeted poverty alleviation. This article aims to provide Chinese wisdom and Chinese solutions for the world and especially for developing countries by reviewing the history of poverty eradication since the founding of the PRC and summarizing the great achievements in this sphere since the 18th National Congress of the CPC.

This research is motivated by the failure of Indonesian government in implementing its poverty alleviation. Poverty rate in Indonesia does not decrease although the government has implemented a complete strategy to address the problem. It is right that the poor household has got a lot of help from the government, but their welfare does not increase. The program seems merely to serve as a temporary safety valve. This study attempts to find the causes of the failure of the program. The research has found that unchanged consciousness of the beneficiaries becomes the main factor of the failure. In their consciousness, the beneficiaries do not find a true dream about the ideal of what will be achieved in the future. If they have such a dream, it is more on meeting the current needs and is not followed by reasoning instrument in the form of guidelines for their goal achievement.
