题目：Growth and Shared Prosperity
摘要：The World Bank has recently proposed a new development model that focuses on the bottom 40% of the population. This new paradigm aims to (i) lower extreme or absolute poverty in the globe to 3% by 2030, and (ii) foster economic growth that benefits the bottom 40% of the population. The second goal that targets the bottom 40% of the population is built on the concept of shared prosperity. The basic idea is that growth fosters shared prosperity if the bottom 40% of the population could benefit from economic growth.
This paper extends the idea of shared prosperity by exploring linkages between four dimensions: growth patterns, inequality, labor market performance, and social policies. It demonstrates that the simple idea of shared prosperity could be a powerful tool to answer many policy questions relating to labor market and social policies. The distinction is made between average prosperity (AP) and shared prosperity (SP), which are linked by an inequity component on top of the average prosperity measure. A related idea of shared growth is developed through measuring gains or losses in growth rates due to increasing (decreasing) equity in shared prosperity; that is, the larger the gain, the greater the shared growth.
The proposed methodologies are applied to Brazil, covering the period 2001-12. Many policy questions relating to labor market performance and social policies will shed light on how Brazil has achieved shared growth during the past decade or so. The methodology is generally applicable to any country including China.
