Description

This important new collection of contributions brings together current thinking on poverty reduction and rural livelihoods in developing countries.

As well as leading economists in the field such as Frank Ellis and Chris Barrett, there are a number of contributors from developing countries themselves.

The book examines both macroeconomic and microeconomic phenomena and contains wide range of case studies. Skilfully exposing the gap that exists between the rhetoric of poverty reduction strategies in capital cities and the practice of public sector delivery in rural areas, this key text will be essential reading for advanced students and researchers in the fields of rural development, rural livelihoods, poverty reduction strategies and Sub-Saharan Africa development as well as advisors and practitioners in international organizations.
