Book desription: The World Bank, 2008. Paperback. New Book. Paperback. This report from the Poverty, Reduction and Aid Effectiveness group of the World Bank and the World Bank's country office in Madagascar analyzes how labor markets work as a mechanism between growth and poverty reduction in the country. The report is part of a multi-year program that studied the role of employment in the country to encourage inclusive growth and create a broader work program in the labor market. It uses data from household surveys conducted in 1999, 2001, and 2005, and national accounts data, and discusses the characteristics of growth, poverty, and labor markets, and the connection between output, employment, and labor productivity; productivity and earnings; and employment, earnings, and poverty. Other issues, such as rural versus urban conditions, education, women and children in the labor market, and self-employment and household enterprises, are covered. The book is meant for development practitioners in international organizations, governments, research institutions, and universities. (©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR)
