Download or read book Poverty and Social Impact Analysis of Reforms written by Aline Coudouel and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 550 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Poverty and Social Impact Analysis (PSIA) is an approach used increasingly by governments, civil society organizations, the World Bank, and other development partners to examine the distributional impacts of policy reforms on the well-being of different stakeholders groups, particularly the poor and vulnerable. PSIA has an important role in the elaboration and implementation of poverty reduction strategies in developing countries because it promotes evidence-based policy choices and fosters debate on policy reform options. Poverty and Social Impact Analysis of Reforms presents a collection of case studies that illustrate the spectrum of sectors and policy reforms to which PSIA can be applied; it also elaborates on the broad range of analytical tools and techniques that can be used for PSIA. The case studies provide examples of the impact that PSIA can have on the design of policy reforms and draw operational lessons for PSIA implementation. The case studies deal largely with policy reforms in a single sector, such as agriculture (crop marketing boards in Malawi and Tanzania and cotton privatization in Tajikistan); energy (mining sector in Romania and oil subsidies in Ghana); utilities (power sector reform in Ghana, Rwanda, and transition economies, and water sector reform in Albania); social sectors (education reform in Mozambique and social welfare reform in Sri Lanka); taxation reform (Nicaragua); as well as macroeconomic modeling (Burkina Faso)."
Download or read book Spatial price integration among selected bean markets in Malawi written by Wezzie S. Mtumbuka and published by Intl Food Policy Res Inst. This book was released on 2014-07-16 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research examines the extent of market integration among different bean markets across Malawi. Market integration is an indicator that efficiency exists within the flow of information between markets. The study focused on beans as they are a cheap source of protein affordable by the majority of rural smallholder farmers. Market price data for beans was obtained from the Ministry of Agriculture and Food Security and covered the period 1995 to 2011. The markets included in the study are Chitipa, Rumphi, Mzuzu, Lilongwe, Mitundu, Lizulu, Lunzu, Luchenza, and Bangula. Like prices of other agricultural crops, bean prices follow a general seasonal pattern, rising with increasing time since the last harvest and decreasing during the harvest period. Bean prices typically peak in December when bean supply to the market is low. The research results show that beans prices in different markets move in the same direction, meaning that the markets are co-integrated. However, price information is not fully transmitted between markets. Transaction costs were found to be higher in markets which are far away from major cities and in those markets serviced by poor roads. Based on the results, the study recommends the need to improve infrastructure and market information systems to enhance bean market efficiency in Malawi.

Download or read book Women on the Indian Scene An Annoted Bibliography written by Kalpana Dasgupta and published by Abhinav Publications. This book was released on 2003-06 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Indian womanhood and its role in the national resurgence has long been a controversial field of research. But the bulk of published literature on women, with different subject-slants, has not yet been systematically surveyed and arranged for the use of scholars in the field. The present volume decidedly fills in a big gap in the bibliographic compilation on the subject. This annotated bibliography is a maiden venture that subject-wise organizes 823 published monographs, books, reports and research papers in English. A statistical analysis of the trend of research on women in India from the ancient times to the present offers an overview of the research already done, and in the process, it also identifies the gaps that await further scholarly research. The bibliography has been arranged under the broad categories of: General survey; Society and women; Economic status; Political status; Legal status; Education Women in Art and Culture; Biographies of eminent women. The subject divisions are then classified period-wise : (A) Ancient to Modern; (B) Ancient of Medieval; © Modern. A further classification is according to the type of material, i. e. books, reports, monographs and research papers. The appendices carry lists of unpublished theses submitted to universities during the last few years and a chronologically arranged list of legislations that have affected the lives of women in this country.
