| description |
Tajikistan was one of the fastest
growing countries in the Europe and Central Asia region
during the last decade. The economic growth was widely
shared by the population and as a result poverty (measured
by the national poverty line) declined from 73 percent in
2003 to 47 percent in 2009 accompanied by falling
inequality. Consumption growth of the bottom 40 percent of
the population -- a measure of shared prosperity proposed by
the World Bank- was positive, pointing out that the growth
was shared among the less well off. This work presents a
diagnostic of shared prosperity and poverty reduction in
Tajikistan during 2003-2009. The paper also focuses on
quantifying the main drivers of poverty reduction, shared
prosperity, and intra-generational mobility (class
transitions). Some of the mechanisms of poverty reduction
are explored in detail. Finally, main impediments to
inter-generational mobility are discussed. |
