    Content: The aim of this case study is to qualitatively assess men and women's perceptions of economic mobility, access to labor market and entrepreneurship opportunities, and the impact of selected labor market and social assistance policies. Through the use of focus group discussions and semi-structured interviews, the study aims to uncover underlying differences in perspective by gender, related to the main study topics. The study is structured along four main themes: (1) economic mobility and shared prosperity; (2) pathways and barriers to employment; (3) youth transitions, and (4) coping with poverty and joblessness

    Series Statement: Moving out of poverty
    Content: Esta obra reune perspectivas multidisciplinarias en torno a la movilidad de los pobres, un enfoque dinamico que se espera sera un aporte a la comprension del lector acerca del como y el por que la gente entra y sale de la pobreza. Los capitulos se basan en los microdatos longitudinales mas recientes con el fin de presentar una imagen dinamica de la pobreza, que es bastante diferente de lo que se puede apreciar en las imagenes estaticas, muy utilizadas en el analisis tradicional. El libro tambien se destaca por las diferentes perspectivas disciplinarias de los autores que dan clara muestra de la importancia de basarse en informacion diversa si se busca profundizar el conocimiento del lector sobre como reducir la pobreza. Los hallazgos economicos refuerzan lo que es bien sabido por algun tiempo: el crecimiento economico acelerado refuerza la reduccion de la pobreza, pero la velocidad del proceso se ve considerablemente afectada por factores sociales y politicos. Los paneles economicos tambien muestran que el numero de quienes estan sumidos en la pobreza permanente en todo el mundo es, en realidad, inferior al de aquellos que entran o salen de la pobreza. Los estudios estaticos no capturan este dinamismo de la pobreza y su vulnerabilidad. De particular interes son los capitulos que clarifican las interacciones entre los factores locales sociales, politicos y economicos que coexisten con la pobreza, la vulnerabilidad y la inequidad permanentes. Su planteamiento se dirige hacia la necesidad de abarcar distintas disciplinas cuando deseamos alcanzar a los mas pobres atrapados en la pobreza y a aquellos que entran o salen de ella.

While covering a vast body of conceptual and empirical knowledge about economic and social mobility, it takes the reader on compelling journeys of multigenerational accounts of three villages in Kanartaka, India, twelve years in the life of a street child in Burkina Faso, and much more. Leading development practitioners and scholars from the fields of anthropology, economics, political science, and sociology critically examine the literature from their disciplines and contribute new framework
