9789280811223: Spatial Disparities in Human Development: Perspectives from Asia

Inhaltsangabe

Spatial disparities are a measure of the unequal distribution of income, wealth, power and resources between peoples in different locations. These papers apply the latest research techniques, including regression-based decomposition, poverty decomposition and computable general equilibrium models, to issues related to the Millennium Development Goals, such as conflict, poverty and the causes and consequences of inequality. The papers were first presented at a March 2003 United Nations University and, in this collection, represent the first attempt to examine spatial inequality in Asia from multiple perspectives.
