Description and Table of Contents

Description

This book provides a significant review of trends in household living standards in a number of African countries in the last decade to identify four issues fundamental to poverty reduction: economic policy reforms - improving macroeconomic balances and liberalizing markets; location and infrastructure is crucial; education and access to land are key private endowments to help households benefit from emerging economic opportunities as is social protection - assessing the effects of policy changes.
