It examines three thematic pillars: the limits of conventional macroeconomics; the long-run agenda of structural transformation and the development of capabilities; and inequality and its macroeconomic consequences. It offers a valuable new resource to economists, policy-makers and all those interested in inclusive economic development. 410 0$aAdvances in Labour Studies 608 $aElectronic books. 700 $aIslam$b Iyanatul$0631765 701 $aKucera$b David$0926983 801 0$bAU-PeEL 801 1$bAU-PeEL 801 2$bAU-PeEL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910463746303321 996 $aBeyond Macroeconomic Stability$92082542 997 $aUNINA
