I. Introduction

This guide is designed to assist with research in the Georgetown University Law Library on poverty and related areas of legal scholarship, practice, and policymaking. It includes sections on family law, global poverty law, government benefits law, homelessness law, housing law, legal assistance to the poor, and Social Security law. Each section provides information on relevant books, journals, databases, electronic resources, organizations, and statistics where available.

When using this guide to research specific or discrete topics, it is important to explore the resources listed in all sections. The resources and organizations presented under each category will often address a variety of poverty-related topics, although their names may indicate a concentration in a single area.

Poverty law has been defined as "the legal statutes, regulations and cases that apply particularly to the financially poor in his or her day-to-day life."ƒ Accordingly, the research of poverty law often draws upon materials across a wide range of legal topics and social science disciplines, including public benefits law, health care law, housing law, education law, elder law, family law, juvenile law, employment law, welfare law, and Social Security law. A broader list includes consumer law, immigration law, insurance law, domestic violence, child care, election reform, political science, economics, sociology, social policy, social work, and financial literacy of low-income people.

Given the interdisciplinary nature of research in the subject, poverty law researchers may also find the Law Library's Social Sciences Interdisciplinary Research Guide, Consumer Law and Policy Research Guide to be helpful.

II. Poverty Law in General

Since the 1990s, less scholarly work has been published on poverty law than in previous decades. Nevertheless, poverty law remains an important focus for many scholars and publishers, and interest in the subject will likely continue to grow due to new academic programs, institutional initiatives, and evolving socioeconomic conditions. Today, the Internet provides access to a great deal of current information relevant to poverty law research that would have in the past been put into print by governments, organizations, and individual authors.

The following resources are especially helpful for researchers seeking an overview of poverty law. They include materials that deal with many or several of the main aspects of poverty law, or discuss the broader topic of poverty as it relates to legal, political, and societal institutions in the United States.

A. Books & Treatises

• Justice for All?: The Rich and Poor in Supreme Court History 1790-1990, Russell Galloway, KF8742 .G26 1991. Discusses the U.S. Supreme Court's treatment of the rich and poor in cases involving business regulation, welfare benefits, indigent criminal defendants, racial discrimination, and economic issues.

• Cases and Materials on Poverty Law: Theory and Practice, Julie A. Nice & Louise G. Trubek, KF390.5.P6 N52 1997. The first poverty law case book written since 1976, and therefore a good general source of information on the study of poverty law.
