This title was first published in 2000. An analysis of income
distribution and development in Kenya, seeking to increase the
reader's understanding of the political economy of that country. Dr
Mwangi offers three contributions. He provides an estimate of
income inequality in Kenya. He presents data on time allocation in
Kenya which makes it possible to compare the distribution of work
with the distribution of income. Finally, he attempts to construct
a class analysis that goes beyond the debates of the 1970s and
1980s, and goes on to draw a number of important conclusions from
his findings.
The Kenyan economy has experienced improved economic growth in
recent years, and the government has maintained a commitment to
generating 500,000 new jobs per year. But the country still faces
severe problems of poverty-level employment - people working
full-time yet living with their families in poverty. This study
develops detailed proposals for greatly expanding decent employment
opportunities in Kenya, and to accomplish this in a manner that
also creates a wide range of employment and business opportunities,
including those for small and medium-sized enterprises,
agricultural small holders, commercial banks, and microfinance
institutions.
