Pro-Girl Bias in Intrahousehold Allocation in the Rural Philippines
Why Has Growth Not Been Pro-Poor in the Philippines, and What to Do About it
Filipina Encounters with Japan
This article focuses on the unfolding lives of eight Filipinas from a barangay in Pangasinan who have worked as Overseas Performing Artists (OPAs) or are wives of Japanese men. Their life stories, as told during interviews conducted in the Philippines and in Japan between 1994 and 2004, were enhanced with information on their families collected through four decades of research since 1961.

The Filipino “Entertainers” in Japan
The Role of Non-agricultural Sectors in Rural Poverty Reduction
While the existing literature on rural poverty dynamics in the Philippines is mostly based on case studies in rice growing villages in Luzon and Panay islands, this paper examines the changing income composition and poverty status among rural households in corn and sugar growing areas in Bukidnon Province on the island of Mindanao, where the incidence of poverty tends to be much higher than in Central Luzon.Despite the slight overall increase in …
Are small‐scale rice farmers in eastern India really inefficient? Examining the effects of microtopography on technical efficiency estimates
The article analyzes how controlling for differences in land types (defined by position on a low‐scale toposequence) affects estimates of farm technical efficiency for rice farms in eastern India. Contrasting previous research, we find that farms are considerably more technically efficient when efficiency estimates are carried out at the plot level and control for plot characteristics rather than at the farm level without such controls. Estimates…

This volume reasserts the role of agricultural and rural development in the economic development debate. By revisiting the evolution of ideas, paradigms and empirical evidence, and by drawing on Asian experiences, the book intends…
