South-South Trade Agreements, Location of Production and Inequality in Latin America.The causes and consequences of high inequality in incomes, assets, and many aspects of well-being in Latin America have recently (re-)emerged as a central research and policy issue. However, many open questions remain that will be dealt with in the contributions to this volume. First, the linkages between growth, inequality, and poverty in Latin America need further clarification. More analyses at the country and even sub-national level are required to understand these complex relationships and their most important determinants. Of particular relevance is to examine these relationships in the Latin American context of high economic instability with recurrent economic and financial crises, particularly in the 1990s. Secondly, measuring and addressing poverty remains a critical research area, in particular non-monetary including subjective indicators of well-being often tell a different story that needs to be considered when analyzing poverty trends and determinants. Lastly, the poverty/inequality issues need to be considered in an economic environment, where trade, migration, and economic integration are of particular importance. Thus the role of trade and migration in generating, sustaining, or reducing inequalities between and within countries is an area that requires further analysis.Göttinger Studien zur Entwicklungsökonomik ;20.PovertyLatin AmericaIncome distributionLatin AmericaLatin AmericaEmigration and immigration lawAmerikaArmutEconomic DevelopmentEinkommensdisparitätInequalityKlasenLateinamerikaLatinLatin AmericaMigrationPovertyPovertyIncome distribution330.98Klasen Stephan120786Nowak-Lehmann Felicitas1424004MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910297039703321Poverty, Inequality and Migration in Latin Amerika3552791UNINA
