There has been a rapid global expansion of academic and policy
attention focusing on in-work poverty, illustrating that across the
world there are increasing numbers of people who could be described
as the ?working poor?. Taking a global and multi-disciplinary
perspective, this Handbook provides a comprehensive overview of
current research at the intersection between work and poverty.
Authoritative contributions from leading researchers in the field
provide comprehensive coverage of conceptual and measurement
issues, causal drivers and mechanisms, key empirical findings,
policy issues and debates. The Handbook is unique in offering
perspectives from a wide range of regions and countries, stretching
beyond developed countries. It also does justice to the
paradigmatic diversity in approaches to in-work poverty, offering a
wealth of variety in disciplinary approaches. Academically
rigorous, yet clear and concise, this Handbook will benefit
students and scholars of public policy, politics, social policy and
development studies. It will also prove accessible for policy
analysts and journalists looking to explore the issue from new
angles. Contributors include: P. Barbieri, A. Barrientos, K.M.
