Two causes that weigh heavily on my heart and conscience—violence and poverty—overlap in this oft-recommended book. Haugen, founder of the International Justice Mission (IJM), and Boutros, federal prosecutor with the Department of Justice, believe that violence is at the core of what it means to be poor and argue that efforts to alleviate extreme poverty will largely be ineffective until we find a way to end to the everyday violence to which the poor are subjected.</p>

229<div class="in-the-news-body"><p>To address global poverty, aid groups must recognize that a key cause of poverty is a justice system that fails to protect its most vulnerable citizens against violence, Gary Haugen, president, CEO and founder of International Justice Mission, argues in his new book, The Locust Effect: Why the End of Poverty Requires the End of Violence. When talking about global poverty, most are familiar with problems like hunger, disease or poor sanitation, but are less familar with the consequences of a poor criminal justice system that exposes the poor to violence, Haugen told an American Enterprise Institute audience Wednesday in Washington, D.C.</p>

240<div class="in-the-news-body"><p>And violence, it is important to remember, comes not just from conflict. As expertly captured in the new book The Locust Effect by Gary Haugen and Victor Boutros, violence stemming from broken systems may be the most significant obstacle to confronting extreme poverty. The failure of justice systems and security and police forces to shield poor communities from forced labor, theft, illegal detention, rape, and other abuses keeps millions in poverty who would otherwise find their own way out. And as Haugen and Boutros show, it is an issue that development agencies overwhelmingly fail to address.</p>

You may fear job loss or emotional loss, but you probably don’t fear that somebody is going to slash your throat, or that a gang will invade your house come dinnertime, carrying away your kin and property. We take a basic level of order for granted. But billions of people live in a different emotional landscape, enveloped by hidden terror. Many of these people live in the developing world…as Gary A. Haugen and Victor Boutros point out in their gripping and perspective-altering book, “The Locust Effect,” these places are not just grappling with poverty.

The explanations for why some countries are much poorer than others range from geography to the impact of using chopsticks on manual dexterity. I’m not kidding. But a recent book shines a much-needed light on what, in hindsight, is an obvious contributor to the problem: the endemic violence that plagues poor communities. The book is “The Locust Effect” by Gary Haugen and Victor Boutros. Haugen is the founder and president of the one of the most effective Christian organizations I know, International Justice Mission. Boutros is a federal prosecutor who specializes in human trafficking.</p>

351<div class="in-the-news-body"><p>Just now, there is a small subterranean war in American evangelicalism about who Abraham Kuyper actually was. Jamie Smith, reporting from the front lines of James Bratt's magisterial new biography of Kuyper, cautions us to receive "Kuypers" with suspicion until we've read about the man's life and legacy. But while the bun fights of theologians and theorists go on, Gary Haugen and Victor Boutros have claimed and revitalized a very real Kuyper, in my opinion, with a practical, pressing theology of public justice. <em>The Locust Effect</em> yields the best of his legacy.</p>

384<div class="in-the-news-body"><p>The idea sounds, at once, totally obvious and infinitely complicated: Violence, says Gary A. Haugen, founder of the International Justice Mission (IJM), is “the hidden plague that the world has missed.” What he means, and what he explores in his new book <em>The Locust Effect</em>, is that all of the world’s efforts to support and empower the poor—especially women—will be undermined if we don’t accept the truth that they are the ones most vulnerable to common violence—be it theft, assault, or worse. While in New York City for his book launch, Haugen sat down with Sarah J. Robbins to explain why violence is so hard to address—and why failing to do so could undermine our best efforts to improve the lives of women and girls.</p>

395<div class="in-the-news-body"><p>Imagine that half of the little girls (and three-fifths of the adult women) you meet have been raped or molested in their home, school, or church, or in some other place where they should be safe. Imagine that one-fifth of the boys you meet have been molested as well. Imagine that your pleasant, easy-going gardener has just had his land and his entire life savings stolen by a local strongman. Imagine that the workers in the brick factory down the hill are slaves who work without pay and under the constant threat of being beaten or raped. Now imagine that the police are so corrupt that they not only fail to stop such abuses, but actually abet these and other crimes. That’s the reality faced by a large portion of the global poor. And that’s the disturbing picture that Gary Haugen and Victor Boutros paint in <em>The Locust Effect</em>—an indispensable book that urges readers to confront the “massive epidemic of sexual violence, forced labor, illegal detention, land theft, assault, [and] police abuse” that strikes poor people throughout the developing world and prevents them from escaping poverty.</p>

417<div class="in-the-news-body"><p>Despite our best efforts, we’ve somehow missed it. Even in the midst of our generous financial donations, volunteer hours, mission trips, and letter writing, we’ve failed to see what should have been glaringly obvious: the global poor lack the most basic ingredient for forward progression — personal security. In their recently released book, <em>The Locust Effect</em>, Gary Haugen (founder of the International Justice Mission), and Victor Boutros (federal prosecutor with the U.S. Department of Justice) convincingly argue that all our best work to eradicate poverty — even while worthwhile, helpful, and well-intended — is for naught unless we concurrently address the epidemic of violence and fear facing the poor in the developing world.</p>

428<div class="in-the-news-body"><p>While the world has made encouraging strides in the fight against global poverty, there is a hidden crisis silently undermining our best efforts to help the poor. Gary Haugen and Victor Boutros offer a searing account of how we got here and what it will take to end the plague. Filled with vivid, real-life stories and starting new data, <em>The Locust Effect</em> is a gripping journey into the streets and slums where fear is a daily reality for billions of the world’s poorest, where safety is secured only for those with money, and where much of our well-intended aid is lost in the daily chaos of violence.</p>

This is not to say that the evidence against him was flimsy; there is no evidence against him whatsoever.

In his newest book, <em>The Locust Effect</em>, Gary A. Haugen shines a light on the violence that saturates the lives of the impoverished. Aside from presenting the facts, Haugen asserts that there is hope for all of these people that comes when broken justice systems are repaired. International Justice Mission displays some of the disconcerting facts and figures in the infographic below.</p>

516<div class="in-the-news-body"><p>When we think about the poor of the world our thoughts often drift toward starvation, unsafe water, malaria, and lack of medical attention. These thoughts will likely move us to taking action in a variety of ways. We give farming skills and equipment, we drill wells, we provide mosquito netting, and doctors volunteer their time to help treat the poor of the world. All of these things can be helpful and beneficial but there is a deeper, much darker, problem below the surface of poverty. The problem is violence. Gary Haugen, the founder of International Justice Mission, recently released a new book titled <em>The Locust Effect</em>, which documents the plight of the poor in developing countries.</p>

For myriad reasons they are often without a voice and, in the end, often without justice. Our estimates are more accurate than ever, and they tell us that perhaps 30 million children, women and men are held as forced labor slaves.</p>

615<div class="in-the-news-body"><p>Far below the headlines, a plague of hidden, everyday violence — like rape, trafficking, and police brutality — is devastating the developing world and undermining our efforts to end poverty. In an interview with Gary A. Haugen, founder and president of International Justice Mission (IJM), a global human rights agency that protects the poor from violence, we discussed his new book titled The Locust Effect, which examines why the end of poverty requires the end of violence. The largest organization of its kind, IJM has served thousands of survivors of violence. Haugen was the Director of the U.N. investigation in the aftermath of the Rwandan genocide, and has been recognized by the U.S. State Department as a Trafficking in Persons “Hero” – the highest honor given by the U.S. government for anti-slavery leadership.</p>

637<div class="in-the-news-body"><p>At World Relief, we see firsthand that those without protection often lack access to the opportunities, services and materials required to meet their most basic needs. In fact, four billion people–<em>most</em> of the world’s poorest people–live in places where their justice systems do not or cannot protect them from these crippling forms of violence. To advocate for the impoverished, we must also be advocates of peace and protection. We are joining hands with our friends at International Justice Mission to address the violence directly contributing to poverty around the world. Today, IJM President Gary Haugen and co-author Victor Boutros are releasing their new book, <em>The Locust Effect</em>, to explain why the end of poverty requires the end of violence.</p>

Ill-equipped judicial systems, under-trained and corrupt law enforcement agencies, and despotic housing complexes are just a few of the challenges the impoverished face. Violence spreads with impunity, devouring families and communities that have no means to protect themselves. In <em>The Locust Effect: Why the End of Poverty Requires the End of Violence</em>, Gary A.

They have laws, but no law enforcement… If we want to give the poor a fair chance to move forward, we’ve got to protect them from violence…If you and I think about powverty, we generally think of hunger, of disease, of the need for education. Do we automatically think about the poor’s vulnerability to violence? No. And yet endemic to being poor is a vulnerability to being brutalized by those who are stronger, to be enslaved, to be thrown into prison without charge or a trail. And until we address these forms of violence as well, those other efforts to try to assist the poor are going to be undermined.</p>

747<div class="in-the-news-body"><p>One night in December 2003, an 8-year-old girl named Yuri was abducted, raped, and brutally murdered in the remote Quechuan village of La Union, Peru. The next morning, her 11-year-old brother found her nearly naked body dumped on the main thoroughfare of their village. Yuri's story opens The Locust Effect: Why the End of Poverty Requires the End of Violence (Oxford University Press), the new book from Gary Haugen, founder of International Justice Mission (IJM). Yuri's murderers escaped prosecution, while another man was wrongly convicted and sentenced to 30 years in prison.</p>
