SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
"This book addresses a set of questions at the heart of political economy and public policy: how much does economic growth help the poor? When and why does growth fail to trickle down? How can social policy help? Can a country have a sizeable low-wage sector yet few poor households? Are universal programs better than targeted ones?"--Back cover
