Patterns of Inclusive Growth in Developing Asia: Insights from an Enhanced Growth-Poverty Elasticity Analysis
Published By: ADBI on eSS | Published Date: August, 26 , 2009The primary objective of this research is to identify key factors that explain the observed
wide variation in patterns of inclusiveness of economic growth—defined here as gross
domestic product (GDP) growth that leads to significant poverty reduction—in Asia. In
exploring this relationship, this study goes beyond defining poverty by the income or
expenditure yardstick alone, but examines a more holistic measure of poverty that considers
its multidimensional nature. [ADBI Working Paper 145]
