Book Description
Approximately 25% of Latin Americans live on less than $2 a day, and Latin America is the most unequal region of the world. Poverty and inequality cause suffering and slow development. The solution must include generating an inclusive development process through satisfying the basic needs of the poor that enhance their productivity, that enable them to contribute to the development process, and that enables them to earn the income necessary to live a full life. Decentralization of taxing and spending from the central government to lower levels of government can help to satisfy basic needs of the poor and create an inclusive development process. However, decentralization is a stepby-step process that must implemented by taking into account real-world circumstances such as a lack of administrative ability in local government, and by formulating policy accordingly. The book derives economic principles for implementing the process of decentralization, and it presents cases that illustrate the principles at work. It is an economic guide for policymakers and practitioners.

Decentralization for Satisfying Basic Needs - 2nd Edition
Author: J. Michael McGuire
Publisher: IAP
ISBN: 1607524120
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 214
Book Description
More than one in every five Latin Americans lives on less than $2 a day, and Latin America is the most unequal region in the world. The book tackles the problem of poverty and inequality in Latin America through the novel approach of using the decentralization of government functions to satisfy the basic needs of the poor. Decentralization can bring government closer to the people and strengthen the voice of the voiceless. Satisfying basic needs for services such as education and health care enhances productivity and imparts an indispensable opportunity to earn an income sufficient to emerge from poverty and to live a full life. Part 1 describes the poverty and inequality of Latin America and the Basic Needs Approach to Development. Part 2 introduces a model of decentralization as a step-by-step process, and it shows the policymaker how to implement decentralization in stages through matching its various degrees with real-world circumstances. Part 3 enriches the understanding of policymakers by analyzing real-world cases of decentralization in light of the decentralization model. The second edition includes two new chapters that cover the important but often neglected topic of taxation for inclusive development. Chapter 8 analyzes the influential tax advice of the World Bank in terms of its effect on decentralization and the satisfaction of basic needs. Appendix B of Chapter 8 presents an empirical analysis in support of the chapter’s argument that the Bank’s policy is in need of revision. Chapter 9 analyzes the effects of the World Bank’s tax advice on El Salvador’s tax reform and development process. Two other chapters have been extensively updated: Chapter 6 records and analyzes the rapid evolution of Mexico’s Oportunidades program for health, education and nutrition, and Chapter 10 evaluates the progress of the United States’ innovative program for foreign aid, The Millennium Challenge Account. Throughout the book, tables and references have been updated.

Category : Architectural design
Languages : en
Pages : 306
Book Description
Ha sido siempre difícil predecir lo imprevisible, pero con el conocimiento y las tecnologías de hoy en día debería ser posible al menos para pronosticar de un modo fiable la parte previsible para proporcionar las exigencias sanitarias humanas primarias. En una tentativa de cubrir todas estas necesidades estos sistemas ahora se enfrentan a desafíos importantes planteados por el desarrollo rápido de la comunicación y la tecnología biomédica, la necesidad de la contención de coste y el foco sobre la eficiencia y la eficacia, el aumento de la demanda de servicios de las poblaciones y los cambios de factores demográficos y epidemiológicos. El interfaz de emergencia nos ayudará a decidir rápidamente en situaciones críticas como la Unidad debe ser y nos llevará a su diseño en tiempo real. Nuestro Sistema Sanitario de Emergencia tiene un diseño basado en la interfaz. Cuando una emergencia ocurre, el interfaz conectado a la fábrica diseñará el sistema, personalizado para la situación, lo empaquetará y lo enviará listo para desplegarse.
