Overview

Rural poverty constitutes the most important development challenge in many Asian developing economies, but much still remains unclear about the characteristics, causes and possible remedies of rural poverty. This book, an outcome of an Asian Development Bank study on rural poverty, presents a collection of economic essays highlighting the major issues affecting rural poverty. It includes a summary of the papers included in this volume and a short synthesis of in-depth country studies which are to be published in forthcoming separate volumes.
