The second chapter analyzes the worlds cross-country distribution of income and challenges the so called Twin Peaks-claim. The third chapter focuses on the world income distribution and resulting implications for poverty reduction, pro-poor growth and the evolution of global inequality. The fourth chapter estimates the welfare effects of recently negotiated Economic Partnership Agreements between the EU and African countries. Finally, the fifth chapter investigates whether democracy leads to higher levels of health and education. 410 0$aGo?ttinger Studien zur Entwicklungso?konomik ;$v27. 606 $aEconomic development$xEconometric models 606 $aCommercial treaties 606 $aEconomic forecasting 610 $aContribution 610 $aCross-Country Income Distribution 610 $aDemogracy and Human Development 610 $aDevelopment 610 $aEconomic 610 $aEconomic Partnership Agreements 610 $aEmpirics 610 $aEmpiricsi 610 $aHuman 610 $aLikelihood-Ratio-Test for Bimodality 610 $aVollmer 610 $aWorld Income Distribution 615 0$aEconomic development$xEconometric models. 615 0$aCommercial treaties. 615 0$aEconomic forecasting. 676 $a330.0112 700 $aVollmer$b Sebastian$0913800 801 0$bWaSeSS 801 1$bWaSeSS 801 2$bUkMaJRU 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910297053403321 996 $aA contribution to the empirics of economic and human development$92047420 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01588nam 2200529 450 001 9910485592503321 005 20230607164429.0 010 $a3-030-71330-X 035 $a(CKB)5590000000487536 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC6648082 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL6648082 035 $a(PPN)258058994 035 $a(EXLCZ)995590000000487536 100 $a20220318d2021 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aEcosystem collapse and climate change /$fJosep G.
