  • Is it really possible for countries to simultaneously grow and reduce poverty and inequality? Going beyond global narratives

    Jose Cuesta, Mario Negre et al.ARTICLEOxford Development Studies2020

    Global narratives underscore that economic growth can often coincide with reductions in poverty and inequality. However, the experiences of several countries over recent decades confirm that inequality can widen or narrow in response to policy choices and independent of economic growth. This paper analyses five country cases, Brazil, Cambodia, Mali, Peru and Tanzania. These countries are the most successful in reducing inequality and poverty whil…

  • How Much Does Reducing Inequality Matter for Global Poverty

    Mario Negre, Christoph Lakner et al.BOOK2020

    The goals of ending extreme poverty by 2030 and working towards a more equal distribution of incomes are part of the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals. Using data from 166 countries comprising 97.5 percent of the world's population, we simulate scenarios for global poverty from 2019 to 2030 under various assumptions about growth and inequality. We use different assumptions about growth incidence curves to model changes in inequality, …

  • Shared Prosperity: Concepts, Data, and Some Policy Examples

    Open AccessEmanuela Galasso, Francisco H G Ferreira et al.BOOK2018

    "Shared prosperity" has become a common phrase in the development policy discourse. This short paper provides its most widely used operational definition -- the growth rate in the average income of the poorest 40 percent of a country's population -- and describes its origins. The paper discusses how this notion relates to well-established concepts and social indicators, including social welfare, poverty, inequality, and mobility, and reviews some…

  • Costs, Benefits and the Political Economy of Aid Coordination: The Case of the European Union

    Open AccessStephan Klingebiel, Mario Negre et al.ARTICLEEuropean Journal of Development…2016Cited by: 1References: 1

    Although it is not possible to identify a specific, theoretical optimum level of aid coordination for the European Union, there is a broad consensus on the need for reduced transaction costs and greater impact through a stronger adherence to coordination standards. However, neither member states nor European institutions consequently follow a policy in line with a clear coordination principle. And nor do partner countries always push for more don…

  • Twinning the Goals: How Can Promoting Shared Prosperity Help to Reduce Global Poverty?

    Mario Negre, Christoph Lakner et al.BOOK2014

    In 2013, the World Bank adopted two goals: First, reduce global extreme poverty to 3 percent by 2030. Second, promote shared prosperity defined as the income growth of the bottom 40 percent of the population within a country. This paper simulates the global poverty headcount under three growth scenarios for the bottom 40 percent up to 2030. The analysis deploys a set of "shared prosperity premiums," in which the bottom 40 percent in each country …
