Adjustment Policies Poverty & Unemployment

Pierre-Richard Agnor's pioneering work on Integrated Macroeconomics Models for Poverty Analysis (IMMPAs) is cataloged for the first time in this must-read volume. A class of Computable General Equilibrium models, IMMPAs are designed to analyze the impact of adjustment policies on unemployment figures and poverty, particularly in the developing world. Including both working papers originally circulated through the World Bank, as well as new material that places this important work in its larger context, Adjustment Policies, Poverty and Unemployment details the history and uses of these models to date, as well as pointing to future developments for their utilization.
