In this open access book, Matthew Greenslade sheds some much-needed light on the
 damage being done by the World Bank's insistence on pursuing a poverty-targeted
 approach to social protection in lower income countries, while also describing 
some of the successes in the grassroots fights for a more universal approach. Al
l this is organized around the true story of Stephen Kidd, an ex-missionary who 
cut his teeth fighting for indigenous land rights in Latin America, then survive
d an assassination attempt, and ultimately went on to be a leader in the global 
fight for universal social protection. Nearly half of the world's population doe
s not have access to the sorts of welfare and benefits programs that protect man
y people in the Global North. This means little to no protection in vulnerable t
imes of life or against crises such as pandemics and climate-related events, and
 much less chance of building sustainable economies and the transition to low-ca
rbon growth. Incorporating perspectives from academia, NGOs and activists, Green
slade shows, through Kidd's story, how governments in the Global South are worki
ng to fill this gap, but all too often, World-Bank-led support from the Global N
orth encourages poverty-targeted programmes that are error-strewn, can cause soc
ial unrest, and can ultimately set back the development of universal social prot
ection systems for years. Yet, as Greenslade also shows, collaborations among th
e United Nations, NGOs, academia, and practitioners such as Kidd are supporting 
Global South governments in pushing for more sustainable, home-grown, human-righ
ts-aligned, universally available systems of social protection. The eBook editio
