MPRA Paper from University Library of Munich, Germany

Abstract: The pro-poor growth concept came up in the economic literature recently and in the last decade a lot of researches have been dedicated to this study from many important international institutions and organizations. However, there are still disagreements on how we should intend the pro-poor growth and what kind of policies shall be implemented for it. Describing theoretical and analytical aspects of pro-poor growth, this paper represents a contribution to this literature and tries, in the end, to emphasize policy issues to obtain pro-poor growth.
