This book provides a systematic examination of the relationship
between industrial clusters and poverty, which is analyzed using a
multidimensional framework. It examines the often-neglected concept
of social protection as a means of mitigating the risks and
vulnerabilities faced by workers and citizens in poor countries. By
analyzing the case of the Otigba Information and Communications
Technology cluster in Lagos, Nigeria, the author shows under which
conditions firms in productive clusters can pass on benefits to
workers in ways that improve their living standards in the wider
socio-economic and spatial context of the region. The results
presented provide substantial evidence of opportunities for
economic development, helping planners to explore different avenues
for integrating firm-driven social protection into social policy.
