The book examines the conceptual, economic, and fiscal impact(s) of
the Social Protection Floor (SPF) initiative of the International
Labor Organisation (ILO) and other policy influencers by first
critically examining the methodologies used by the international
agencies to estimate the fiscal costs of designated minimum
package(s) of social protection programs. The book also briefly
reviews the methodologies used and usefulness of the Social
Protection Index (SPI) of the Asian Development Bank (ADB). Second,
the book analyses strategies and specific initiatives used by the
selected East Asian countries (China, India, Indonesia, the
Philippines, Thailand, and Vietnam), designed to progress towards
the social protection goals underlying the Social Development Goals
(SDGs) adopted by the United Nations in September 2015, and
endorsed by the countries covered in this book. Finally, the book
provides a framework for generating fiscal space to fund the social
protection programs and initiatives. The country chapters utilise
this framework in the context of each specific country to suggest
generating fiscal space.
