Description

Development Economics: A Policy Relevance Approach This volume is a comprehensive exploration of development economics, tackling key questions about designing effective anti-poverty policies and their potential success. It focuses on programmes and policies for India, while also drawing on international experience with cash transfer schemes. The book applies core theoretical insights to discussions around poverty measurement, income inequality, rural unemployment, and alternative growth strategies. The authors examine the impact of these factors on poverty and inequality, providing a nuanced understanding of the complex relationships involved. The essays are organized under three broad themes: anti-poverty policies, land, labour, and financial markets, and political economy. This collection offers a unique perspective on development economics, one that is both theoretically grounded and policy-relevant.
