دانلود کتاب Making Work Pay in Madagascar: Employment, Growth, and Poverty Reduction (Directions in Development)

Given the insufficient understanding of the role of employment and earnings as a linkage between growth and poverty reduction, especially in low income countries, this title provides inputs into the policy discussion on how to enhance poverty reduction through increased employment and earnings for given growth levels, in the case of Madagascar. It explores this linkage in the case of Madagascar using data from the national accounts and household surveys from the years 1999, 2001, and 2005, a period characterized among others by a short but severe crisis which started at the end of 2001 and the subsequent economic rebound. This report is part of a series of studies conducted in the context of the World Bank s research framework aiming to improve the understanding of the linkages among growth, labor, and poverty reduction.
