декабря, 2008

In the last two decades, across a range of countries high growth rates have reduced poverty but have been accompanied by rising inequality.

This paper reviews the evidence about the effects of urbanization and cities on productivity and economic growth in developing countries using a consistent theoretical framework.

This is particularly important because the country has almost no natural resources and the economy and its fundamentals were completely destroyed by the 1994 genocide.
