How to Achieve Inclusive Growth
Author: Valerie Cerra

ISBN: 0192846930
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 901
Book Description
This is an open access title available under the terms of a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 International licence. It is free to read at Oxford Scholarship Online and offered as a free PDF download from OUP and selected open access locations. Rising inequality and widespread poverty, social unrest and polarization, gender and ethnic disparities, declining social mobility, economic fragility, unbalanced growth due to technology and globalization, and existential danger from climate change are urgent global concerns of our day. These issues are intertwined. They therefore require a holistic framework to examine their interplay and bring the various strands together. Leading academic economists have partnered with experts from several international institutions to explain the sources and scale of these challenges. They gather a wide array of empirical evidence and country experiences to lay out practical policy solutions and to devise a comprehensive and unified plan of action for combatting these economic and social disparities. This authoritative book is accessible to policy makers, students, and the general public interested in how to craft a brighter future by building a sustainable, green, and inclusive society in the years ahead.

Making Growth Inclusive
Author: Elizabeth Stuart
Publisher: Oxfam
ISBN: 1848148607
Category : Economic development
Languages : en
Pages : 43
Book Description
Shows that growth is back on the development agenda, promoted by bilateral and multilateral donors, and the G20, as the most effective way to lift people out of poverty. Argues that economic growth has reduced poverty in developing countries in the past, but by ignoring the issue of equality, donors and poor country governments have failed to maximise the benefits of that growth - and in some cases, people have become worse off. Extracts lessons from case studies of Brazil, Viet Nam, and Ghana to suggest three key areas where action by governments is likely to deliver : a proper redistributive agenda ; appropriate macroeconomic prudence ; and a policy environment that fosters a pro-poor private sector.

Development Centre Studies Can Social Protection Be an Engine for Inclusive Growth?
Author: OECD
Publisher: OECD Publishing
ISBN: 9264573712
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 102
Book Description
The potential role of social protection in the development process has received heightened recognition in recent years, yet making a strong investment case for social protection remains particularly challenging in many emerging and developing countries. This report challenges us to think deeply about the economic rationale for social protection investments through an inclusive development lens. It helps us understand the links between social protection, growth and inequality; how to measure those links empirically; social protection’s impact on inclusive growth; and how to build a more solid economic case for greater social protection investments.
