Book excerpt: During the 1980s, many developing countries have entered into an explicit process of structural adjustment. The need for such adjustment has been brought about through combinations of external and internal shocks which have led to unsustainable external deficits. Adjustment is not costless. It calls for changes in the composition of output, with more emphasis being placed on exports, and an outward looking strategy. Therefore, there will be distributional effects with both gainers and losers. Who are the likely losers? Are they already in poverty? If so, how can the adjustment process be managed so as to protect them? This paper addresses these questions by putting forward a conceptual framework and implementing it for the specific case of Cote d'Ivoire. This paper is divided into five sections : 1) lays out the conceptual framework of analysis at the macro and micro level; 2) reviews the structural adjustment program in order to highlight salient features that relate to poverty alleviation; 3) develops an empirical poverty profile for 1985; 4) attempts to link the macroeconomic developments of 1980-85 to poverty; and finally 5) looks ahead and draws out some policy conclusions for future design of structural adjustment loans (SALs).

Book Synopsis The Poor During Adjustment by : Paul Glewwe
Download or read book The Poor During Adjustment written by Paul Glewwe and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 37 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The impact of structural adjustment programs on the poor in developing countries has received a great deal of attention in recent years. This paper provides a general overview of the issues involved and then analyzes the impact of structural adjustment on the poor in Cote d'Ivoire. Several conclusions can be drawn from the Ivorian case. Many of the poor may be little affected by structural adjustment policies because most of them are subsistence farmers in rural areas. Consequently, the cost of safeguarding the poor during adjustment may not be very high. In practice, however, it may be very difficult to identify the poor and to implement the needed interventions. Household survey data can be extremely useful in assessing the effects of structural adjustment on the poor and designing appropriate policies on their behalf.

Download or read book The Social Dimensions of Adjustment Integrated Survey written by Ghislaine Delaine and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is one of a series of technical documents providing guidelines on the measurement and analysis of the socio-economic effects of structural adjustment policies, and in particular how such policies affect living standards at the household level. This document describes the main elements of the national information system needed to effectively provide the information used to undertake the full range of analysis proposed in the Analysis Plan. It reviews the objectives of the Integrated Survey (IS) and includes a brief description of the analysis plans as well as a review of the other uses to which the IS data can be applied, such as the computation of weights for consumer price indices. A presentation of the prototype questionnaire and the rationale for the structure of the questionnaire and the reasons for including the various sections and questions is provided. It reviews issues related to survey organization and field logistics, with special emphasis on organizing survey operations in such a way that delays in survey implementation are reduced and that adequate checks are built in to control the levels of non-sampling error that can so easily threaten the success of such a survey. The document describes the steps of computing the essential household income and expenditure aggregates and subaggregates needed to develop household accounts. Finally, issues related to the presentation of the initial survey results are discussed.

Book Synopsis Poverty and Economic Growth by : Nanak Kakwani
Download or read book Poverty and Economic Growth written by Nanak Kakwani and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper explores the relation between economic growth and poverty, and develops the methodology to measure separately the impact of changes in average inccome and income inequality on poverty. This decomposition provides a link between macro economic adjustment policies and poverty which is discussed in the context of the adjustment experience of Cote d'Ivoire. The issue of targeting a poverty alleviation budget is shown to be related to the poverty decomposition proposed in the paper. The methodology proposed is applied to the data taken from the 1985 Living Standards Survey in Cote d'Ivoire.
Book Synopsis Our Continent, Our Future by : P. Thandika Mkandawire
Download or read book Our Continent, Our Future written by P. Thandika Mkandawire and published by IDRC. This book was released on 2014-05-14 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our Continent, Our Future presents the emerging African perspective on this complex issue. The authors use as background their own extensive experience and a collection of 30 individual studies, 25 of which were from African economists, to summarize this African perspective and articulate a path for the future. They underscore the need to be sensitive to each country's unique history and current condition. They argue for a broader policy agenda and for a much more active role for the state within what is largely a market economy. Finally, they stress that Africa must, and can, compete in an increasingly globalized world and, perhaps most importantly, that Africans must assume the leading role in defining the continent's development agenda.

Download or read book Making Adjustment Work for the Poor written by and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document was written as part of the work undertaken under the Social Dimensions of Adjustment (SDA) Program in Africa. The program aims at thoroughly integrating social dimensions into economic and financial decision-making. To do so, it pursues several parallel tracks. 1) within each country a special institution building effort is being launched to strengthen national capability for policy analysis and project identification, preparation and implementation. 2) country-specific studies dealing with poverty alleviation and economic policy are being undertaken. 3) developing an adequate data base for analysis of social issues and formulating socioeconomic policy through monitoring surveys and integrated household surveys. 4) improving the understanding of the links among conceptual, empirical, and policy issues involved in the integration of social and economic policies and programs. This report deals mostly with the last track. The objective is to provide guidance to researchers and practioners in assembling and anlyzing the necessary data in order to achieve the objectives of the SDA initiative. It then explores the major policy issues that must be faced by governments to integrate social dimensions in the design of their structural adjustment programs and development plans.
