* What has been the evolution of poverty and equity during the
recent globalizing decades? * How have poor countries fared on the
Millennium Development Goals? * What role does wealth inequality
play in the level and efficiency of investment and, hence, in
economic growth? * Is gender equity a smart pro-growth strategy as
well as a pro-poor one? * How is equality different from equality
of opportunity, and should policy makers pursue one, the other, or
both? * In formulating distributional strategies, should the middle
class be integrally considered, or should the focus be entirely on
the poorest of the poor? * What are the precise impacts of
globalization on poverty and equity, and what are the policy
implications of these impacts? * Is the problem with globalization
that a key element is missing-the globalization of labor
employment? * What is the role of international migration in the
evolution of equity within and between nations? This book has been
prepared for the Commission on Growth and Development to evaluate
the state of knowledge on the relationship between poverty, equity,
and globalization. It considers a range of questions on poverty and
equity within nations, and the policy frameworks that can best
address distributional concerns as the basis for a growth strategy.
It also examines the important issue of equity between nations, in
particular the possible role of international migration in
alleviating this inequity. Written by prominent analysts in their
fields, 'Equity and Growth in a Globalizing World' seeks to create
a better understanding of the interactions between globalization,
growth, and different dimensions of equity and poverty, and to
inform policy makers of possible policy levers to address central
concerns in the debates in this area.
