Structural Adjustment in Latin America
Author: Ryan Stanger
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Bolivia
Languages : en
Pages : 25
Book Description
This research addresses what effects Structural Adjustment Programs (SAPs) have on society if strictly followed. Bolivia is introduced as a country which follows SAPs strictly. Tow opposing viewpoints of debt being paid back through SAPs are discussed. Health indicators are chosen to study the effects SAPs have had on Bolivia. These indicators show, when possible, data before and after the first SAP took place in Bolivia in 1985. The indicators show that Bolivia has improved in each of the five health indicators presented.

The Alleviation of Poverty Under Structural Adjustment
Author: Lionel Demery
Publisher: World Bank Publications
ISBN: 9780821309568
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 48
Book Description
This study has identified a number of examples in which concerns about the alleviation of poverty have been given some practical expression in adjustment programs. Because most of these examples are of very recent origin, it is difficult to assess how effective they have been in helping the poor. First, one striking feature of the illustrations compiled is that they are invariably orderly or planned structural adjustment programs that have often been implemented with Bank assistance (Bolivia, Cote d'Ivoire, The Gambia, Indonesia, Jamaica, and Thailand). Second, income distributions will inevitably change during adjustment. These changes are the principal incentives for resource reallocation, and without them the objectives of adjustment will not be realized. Third, the study highlights the advantages of interventions that increase the primary income claims of the poor. Finally, adjustment can act as a catalyst for policymakers to examine carefully the costs and benefits of their programs for the poor.

Poverty and Inequality in the Era of Structural Reforms: The Case of Bolivia
Author: Julius Spatz
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3540376496
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 185
Book Description
Fueled by the ongoing debate about the distributive effects of the Washington Consensus, the dynamics of poverty and inequality have returned to the center of attention of academic scholars, policymakers, and the public at large. The main obstacles to analyzing this issue are incomplete income and consumption data in developing countries. Hence, the book presents a new dynamic cross-survey microsimulation methodology and applies it to generate the database for a detailed case study on Bolivia during the era of structural reforms. Building upon this database, the dynamics of different dimensions of poverty and inequality in 1989 - 2002 are analyzed with various microeconomic tools. The empirical results suggest that in the case of Bolivia the impact of the Washington Consensus has neither lived up to the expectations of its proponents nor to the fears of its critics.
