Besley, TimothyCord, Louise J.Besley, TimothyCord, Louise J.2012-06-052012-06-052007978-0-8213-6515-1https://hdl.handle.net/10986/7180Delivering on the Promise of Pro-Poor Growth contributes to the debate on how to accelerate poverty reduction by providing insights from eight countries that have been relatively successful in delivering pro-poor growth: Bangladesh, Brazil, Ghana, India, Indonesia, Tunisia, Uganda, and Vietnam. It integrates growth analytics with the microanalysis of household data to determine how country policies and conditions interact to reduce poverty and to spread the benefits of growth across different income groups. This title is a useful resource for policy makers, donor agencies, academics, think tanks, and government officials seeking a practical framework to improve country level diagnostics of growth-poverty linkages.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOABSOLUTE TERMSACCESS TO ELECTRICITYACCESS TO INFRASTRUCTUREAGRICULTURAL ACTIVITIESAGRICULTURAL EMPLOYMENTAGRICULTURAL GROWTHAGRICULTURAL PRODUCTIONAGRICULTURAL PRODUCTIVITYAGRICULTURAL SECTORAGRICULTURAL TECHNIQUESANNUAL CHANGEANNUAL GROWTHANNUAL GROWTH RATEAVERAGE ANNUALAVERAGE GROWTHAVERAGE GROWTH RATEAVERAGE INEQUALITYCAPITAL ACCUMULATIONCAPITAL FLIGHTCHANGES IN POVERTYCITIZENCONSUMPTION DATACONSUMPTION EXPENDITURECONSUMPTION GROWTHCOUNTRY CASECOUNTRY EXPERIENCESDETERMINANTS OF GROWTHDEVELOPING COUNTRIESDEVELOPMENT INDICATORSDEVELOPMENT POLICYDEVELOPMENT REPORTDIMENSIONS OF POVERTYDISSEMINATIONDISTRIBUTIONAL CHANGEDISTRIBUTIONAL EFFECTDISTRIBUTIONAL IMPACTDISTRIBUTIONAL PATTERNDIVERSIFICATIONECONOMIC ACTIVITYECONOMIC DEVELOPMENTECONOMIC GROWTHECONOMIC POLICYEMPIRICAL LITERATUREEMPLOYMENT INCOMEEMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIESEXCHANGE RATEEXPORT PROMOTIONEXTREME POVERTYFARMERSFEMALE LITERACYFERTILITYFERTILITY RATEFINANCIAL CRISISFOOD CROPFOOD CROPSFOOD GRAINSFOOD MARKETSFOOD-FOR-WORKFOREIGN DIRECT INVESTMENTFUTURE GROWTHGINI COEFFICIENTGLOBAL DEVELOPMENTGREEN REVOLUTIONGROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCTGROWTHGROWTH COMPONENTGROWTH DETERMINANTSGROWTH ELASTICITYGROWTH PERFORMANCEGROWTH PRO-POORGROWTH RATEGROWTH RATESHEADCOUNT POVERTYHIGH INFLATIONHOUSEHOLD CONSUMPTIONHOUSEHOLD INCOMEHOUSEHOLD SURVEYHOUSEHOLD SURVEYSHUMAN CAPITALHUMAN DEVELOPMENTIMPACT OF EDUCATIONIMPACT ON POVERTYIMPACTS OF POLICIESIMPORTANCE OF EDUCATIONINCIDENCE OF POVERTYINCOMEINCOME DISTRIBUTIONINCOME GROWTHINCOME GROWTH RATEINCOME INEQUALITYINCOME TRANSFERSINEQUALITYINEQUALITY DATAINEQUALITY TRENDSINFANTINFANT MORTALITYINFANT MORTALITY RATEINFLATION RATEINFORMAL EMPLOYMENTINHERITANCEINVESTMENT CLIMATEINVESTMENTS IN EDUCATIONIRRIGATIONJOB OPPORTUNITIESLABOR FORCELABOR MARKETLABOR MARKETSLACK OF INFRASTRUCTURELAND LAWLAND REFORMLAND RIGHTSLAND TENURELEGAL STATUSLEVEL OF DEVELOPMENTLIVING STANDARDSLOG GINILOW-INCOME COUNTRIESMACROECONOMIC POLICIESMACROECONOMIC STABILITYMARKET ECONOMYMASSIVE INVESTMENTSMEAN GROWTHMIGRATIONNATIONAL LEVELNATIONAL POVERTYNATIONAL POVERTY LINESNATIONAL POVERTY RATEPEACEPENSIONSPER CAPITA CONSUMPTIONPER CAPITA EXPENDITUREPER CAPITA GROWTHPER CAPITA INCOMEPER CAPITA INCOMESPOLICY INTERVENTIONSPOLICY MAKERSPOLICY OPTIONSPOLICY PERSPECTIVEPOLICY REFORMSPOORPOOR COUNTRYPOOR FARMERSPOOR GROWTH STRATEGIESPOOR HOUSEHOLDSPOOR PEOPLEPOOR PRODUCERSPOOR RURAL WOMENPOORER HOUSEHOLDSPOPULATION DENSITYPOPULATION GROWTHPOPULATION SHIFTSPOVERTYPOVERTY DATAPOVERTY GROWTHPOVERTY INCIDENCEPOVERTY LEVELPOVERTY LEVELSPOVERTY LINESPOVERTY RATEPOVERTY RATESPOVERTY REDUCTIONPOVERTY STATUSPRIMARY PRODUCERSPRO-POORPRO-POOR GROWTHPROGRESSPUBLIC ACCOUNTABILITYPUBLIC EXPENDITUREPUBLIC EXPENDITURESPUBLIC SECTORRAPID GROWTHRATE OF GROWTHREDUCED POVERTYREDUCING POVERTYREDUCTION IN POVERTYREMITTANCESREMOTE AREASREMOTE REGIONSRESEARCH INSTITUTIONSRESPECTRICH COUNTRIESRISING INEQUALITYRURALRURAL AREASRURAL DEVELOPMENTRURAL FARMERSRURAL HOUSEHOLDSRURAL INCOMERURAL LABORRURAL POORRURAL POVERTYRURAL ROADSSAFETY NETSSCHOOLINGSECONDARY EDUCATIONSMALL FARMERSSMALLHOLDER PRODUCERSSMALLHOLDERSSOCIAL DEVELOPMENTSOCIAL PROTECTIONSTATE-OWNED ENTERPRISESSTRUCTURAL POLICIESSTRUCTURAL REFORMSSTRUCTURAL TRANSFORMATIONTECHNICAL ASSISTANCETERTIARY EDUCATIONTOTAL POVERTYTRADE LIBERALIZATIONTRADE OPENNESSTRANSACTION COSTSURBAN AREASURBAN CENTERSURBAN POPULATIONURBAN POVERTYWORKFORCEWorld Bank10.1596/978-0-8213-6515-1
