Growth, Poverty and Inequality in Central America (Estudios Y Perspectivas)
United Nations
The study measures and analyses the household income growth performance of six countries in Central America between 1990 and 2004. Using national household surveys over the period, new empirical and methodological tools were employed to measure the growth in the incomes of the poor and provide an indication of some of pertinent factors in the trends occurred in the region. The results show that growth effects have been poverty reducing but redistribution effects have in many cases been poverty increasing. Further analyses showed that the inhibiting characteristics of the redistribution trends in Central America were due to a variety of structural inequalities in the social development of the countries of the region.
