Rapid economic growth in Asia has led to a dramatic reduction in extreme poverty, but accompanied by increased inequality. This book addresses three questions: What are the trends of inequality in Asia and the Pacific? What are the main drivers of increasing inequality in the region? How should Asian countries respond to increasing inequality? Technological change, globalization and market-oriented reform have been the main drivers of Asia's remarkable growth and poverty reduction, but they have also had significant distribution results. These three engines can not be hindered by growth because they represent sources of improved productivity and improved quality of life.
This book will be useful to those interested in policy options that can be published by Asian countries in the face of increasing inequality.
