Redefining Development Goals: Growth With Improved Income Distribution
Growth is necessary, but not sufficient for poverty reduction
Objective: the generation of broad-based income growth while targeting the incomes of particular groups

The Role of Economic Analysis: Redistribution From Growth Growth versus income distribution GNP growth as a biased index of
national development and well-being Constructing a poverty-weighted index
of social welfare

The Range of Policy Options
Areas of intervention Policy options
– changing relative factor prices– asset redistribution– progressive taxation– transfer payments and public provision of
goods and services The need for a “package” of policies
