Overall policy findings.This book provides new evidence of the theoretical and empirical causes and consequences of child labor. In so doing, the chapters provide a unique set of policy prescriptions that are applicable to both the developing countries that make up the case studies of the volume, as well as other countries more broadly. The volume is constructed to inform policy with rigorous analysis. However, unlike most academic studies, the language and flavour of the volume is largely non-technical, while the policy recommendations are practical. The volume is made up of three sections. The first section builds on the existing literature and provides new theoretical insights into child labor. Section 2 provides empirical evidence from both quantitative and qualitative case studies on child labor from across Asia, Africa and Latin America. This section provides information from studies conducted in Brazil, Cameroon, the Dominican Republic, India and Vietnam. Section 3 provides policy recommendations. .Development economicsEconomic developmentYouth in developmentWelfare economicsDevelopment Economicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W42000Development and Childrenhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/913090Social Choice/Welfare Economics/Public Choice/Political Economyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W31020Development economics.Economic development.Youth in development.Welfare economics.Development Economics.Development and Children.Social Choice/Welfare Economics/Public Choice/Political Economy.344.7940131Posso Albertoedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910411926403321Child Labor in the Developing World2212238UNINA
