Estimating the potential contribution of redistribution to poverty reduction and pro-poor growth

Working papers

Since the donor community established the target of reducing by half the proportion of the world’s population living in extreme poverty by 2015, there has been discussion of the potential contributions of economic growth and income distribution to this goal. This paper looks at the issues linking redistribution and pro-poor growth.
