Institutional Pathways To Equity: Addressing Inequality Traps (New Frontiers Of Social Policy Series),Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Questions of equity and inequality have moved to the center of debates on development and poverty reduction. This reflects growing awareness that even countries with high rates of growth can experience stagnating or increasing inequality, and that inequality can itself limit the povertyreducing effects of growth. Indeed, recent work by a range of United Nations and other development agencies indicates that, in addition to its intrinsic value, equity should be valued for its positive impacts on growth and the povertyreducing effects of such growth. These concerns for equity are coupled with questions of governance. This is because institutional arrangements not only influence overall rates of growth they also affect the distributional effects of growth and are themselves more or less equitable in their structure and functioning. How given institutional arrangements emerge over time, with their particular implications for growth and equity, remains less understood. Institutional Pathways to Equity: Addressing Inequality Traps tackles the relationship between equity and development, the place of institutions in determining these relationships, and the conditions under which particular institutional arrangements can either block or promote transitions toward more equitable forms of development. The chapters, originally commissioned as background documents for the preparation of the World Development Report 2006, were prepared by leading scholars from the fields of economics, political science, sociology, geography, and development studies. The book as a whole speaks directly to current discussions on inequality, poverty, and growth and will contribute to the construction of a historically informed political economy of development. The book specifically highlights the importance of inequality, institutional change through social mobilization, and institutional change through state policies. The authors show that, under certain conditions, state institutions can and have taken a leading role in promoting policies to redress inequitable social relations and so weaken the social foundations of inequality traps.
