In economics, a cycle of poverty or poverty trap is when poverty seems to be inherited causing subsequent generations to not be able to escape it. It is caused by self-reinforcing mechanisms that cause poverty, once it exists, to persist unless there is outside intervention. It can persist across generations, and when applied to developing countries, is also known as a development trap. Wikipedia
