ECONOMIC GROWTH

3. Immiserizing growth: When growth fails

the poor / edited by Paul Shaffer, Ravi

Kanbur, Richard Sandbrook.. - New Delhi:

OUP, 2019. xviii,280;

ISBN : 978-0-19-884693-2.

Book Description: Immiserizing growth

occurs when growth fails to benefit, or harms,

those at the bottom. It is not a new concept,

appearing in some of the towering figures of the

classical tradition of political economy

including Malthus, Ricardo, and Marx. It is also

not empirically insignificant, occurring in

between 10% and 35% of cases. In spite of this,

it has not received its due attention in the

academic literature, dominated by the

prevailing narrative that 'growth is good for the

poor'. Immiserizing Growth: When Growth

Fails the Poor challenges this view to arrive at

a better understanding of when, why, and how

growth fails the poor

Taking a diverse disciplinary

perspective, Immiserizing Growth combines

discussion of mechanisms of this troubling

economic phenomenon with empirical data on

trends in growth, poverty, and related welfare

indicators. It draws on political economy,

applied social anthropology, and development

studies, including contributions from experts in

these fields. A number of methodological

approaches are represented including statistical

analysis of household survey and cross-country

data, detailed ethnographic work and case study

analysis drawing on secondary data.

Geographical coverage is wide including

Bolivia, the Dominican Republic, Ecuador,

India, Indonesia, Mexico, Nigeria, the People's

Republic of China, Singapore, and South

Korea, in addition to cross-country analysis.

This volume is the first full-length treatment of

immiserizing growth, and constitutes an

important step in redirecting attention to this

major challenge.

4. Oxford handbook of productivity analysis /

edited by Emili Grifell-Tatje, C.A. Knox

Lovell, Robin C. Sickles.. - New Delhi: OUP,

2018. x,843;

ISBN : 978-0-19-022671-8.

338.90202 G87O Q8 50858

Book Description: Productivity underpins

business success and national well-being and

thus it is crucial to understand the factors that

influence productivity growth. This volume

provides a comprehensive exploration into the

significance of productivity growth for

business, the economy, and for social economic

progress. It examines how productivity is

defined, measured and implemented. It also

surveys the dispersion of productivity across

time and place, focusing on the productivity

dynamics that either leads to a reallocation of

resources that reduces dispersion and increases

aggregate productivity or, conversely, allows

dispersion to persist behind barriers to

productivity-enhancing reallocation. A third

focus is an investigation of the drivers of, or

impediments to, productivity growth, some of

which are organizational in nature and under

management control and others of which are

institutional in nature and subject to public

policy intervention.

The Oxford Handbook of Productivity

Analysis contains contributions of

distinguished productivity experts from around

the world who analyze a wide range of timely

issues. These issues concern purely analytical

topics surrounding the measurement of

productivity in various situations, beginning

with the ideal situation in which all inputs and

all outputs, and their prices, are observed

accurately. They also include service sectors

such as education in which the services

provided are hard to define, much less measure,

and other sectors that generate undesirable

3

environmental externalities that are difficult to

price and complicate the very definition of

productivity. The issues also involve business

management topics ranging from the role of

business models and benchmarking to the

quality of management practices, the adoption

of new technologies, and possible

complementarities between the two. The

relationship between productivity and business

performance is also explored. At a more

aggregate level the issues range from the

impacts of market power, incentive regulation,

international trade and global value chains on

productivity, to the contribution of productivity

to economic development and economic

welfare.

ECONOMIC POLICY

5. Economic foundations for creative ageing

policy / edited by Andrzej Klimczuk.. -

London: Palgrave Macmillan, 2015. xviii,

232;

Volume I: Context and considerations.

ISBN : 978-1-137-53522-1.

338.9 K68E 5.1 50880

Book Description: Ageing populations are a

major consideration for socio-economic

development in the early twenty-first century.

This demographic change is mainly seen as a

threat rather than as an opportunity to improve

the quality of human life, especially in Europe,

where ageing has resulted in a reduction in

economic competitiveness. Economic

Foundations for Creative Ageing Policy mixes

the silver economy, the creative economy, and

the social economy to construct positive

solutions for an ageing population. Klimczuk

covers theoretical analyses and case study

descriptions of good practices to suggest

strategies that could be internationally

popularized.

TRADE

12. Panagariya, Arvind

Free trade and prosperity: How openness

helps developing countries grow richer and

combat poverty / by Arvind Panagariya.. - New

Delhi: OUP, 2018. xiv,362;

ISBN : 978-0-19-005066-5.

382.71 P19F Q9 50856

Book description: Arguments for protection

and against free trade have seen a revival in

developed countries such as the United States

and Great Britain as well as developing

countries such as India. Given the clear benefits

trade openness has brought everywhere, this is

a surprising development. The benefits of free

trade are especially great for emerging market

economies.

FreeTrade and Prosperityoffers the first full-

scale defense of pro-free-trade policies with

developing countries at its center. Arvind

Panagariya, a professor at Columbia University

and former top economic advisor to the

government of India, supplies a historically

informed analysis of many longstanding but

flawed arguments for protection. He starts with

an insightful overview of the positive case for

free trade, and then closely examines the

various contentions of protectionists. One

protectionist argument is that "infant"

industries need time to grow and become

competitive, and thus should be sheltered.

Other arguments are that emerging markets are

especially prone to coordination failures, they

are in need of diversification of their production

structures, and they suffer from market

imperfections. The panoply of protectionist

arguments, including those for import

substitution industrialization, fails when

subject to close logical and empirical scrutiny.

Free trade and outward-oriented policies are

preconditions to both sustained rapid growth

and poverty alleviation in developing countries.

Panagariya provides compelling evidence

demonstrating the failures of protectionism and

the promise of free trade using detailed case

studies of successful countries such as

Singapore, Taiwan, South Korea, China and

India. Low or declining barriers to free trade

and high or rising shares of trade in total income

have been key elements in the sustained rapid

growth and poverty alleviation in these

countries and many others.

Free trade is like oxygen: the benefits are

ubiquitous and not noticed until they are no

longer there. This important book is an essential

reminder of the costs of protectionism.
