Abstract
The relationship between growth and equity is not a new problem and has deep roots in economic theory and policy debates • The main motivations for this study comes from:
(a) Recent experience of developing regions (mainly Asia and Africa)where growth has occurred alongside persisting poverty and/or inequality
(b) Political uprisings in the MENA region, where popular discontent has brought to question the neo-liberal model of development under autocratic regimes and the growth strategies they pursued with international advice and support.
