The last decade of the 20th century witnessed striking progress in
the developing world and at the same time, it also saw stagnation and
setbacks. Economic growth is key to development both in its pace and
also in its quality. The Quality of Growth is a collection of
essays in an ongoing research project. The book looks at the World
Development Report 1991: The Challenge of Development and examines
how far we have progressed at the turn of the millennium.
According to the report, there are four factors especially relevant
for poverty outcomes:
- distribution,
- sustainability,
- variability, and
- governance surrounding the growth process.
The Quality of Growth advocates broadening the policy
framework from a quantitative agenda for short-term economic growth to
a qualitative agenda involving human, social, and environmentally
sustainable development. It is an important resource for policymakers,
academicians, and all those working in the area of international
development.
