Inclusive Growth, Development and Welfare Policy

The recent global financial crisis has increased the scope of poverty and inequality. The gap between the richest and poorest nations has become wider. National income inequality has also been on the rise. The prospect of a shift in designing and implementing development and welfare policies is strong in this new environment. The neoliberal policies of the Washington Consensus are giving way to development models that look to a more active government role in both economic and social policies. Meanwhile, in the parallel universe of welfare policy a fundamental realignment is already taking place. Faced with the current economic and social challenges, policy communities have turned to a variety of instruments to ensure that growth and social inclusion go together.

This book offers a systematic analysis of the growing convergence on these matters in the development and welfare state literatures, utilizing the experiences of a myriad of jurisdictions around the world. Drawing upon the expertise of leading international policymakers, practitioners and academics in the field, this book critiques the theoretical underpinning of growth and development, examines welfare state perspectives on inclusive growth and social/economic development and presents lessons learned and best/worst practices from the experiences of developing and developed nations.

Reza Hasmath is a Lecturer in Chinese Politics at the University of Oxford and an Associate Professor in Political Science at the University of Alberta. His research looks at state-society relationships, the labour market experiences of ethnic minorities, and development theories and practices.

The Paradigms of Inclusive Growth, Development and Welfare Policy

Reza Hasmath

The global financial crisis, from 2008 to 2012, has increased the scope of poverty and inequality. In 2012, 200 million were out of work worldwide, a figure estimated to rise by 5.1 million in 2013, and an additional 3 million in 2014 (ILO 2013). The ILOs figures further indicate that global unemployment has risen by 28 million since 2007, and, more alarmingly, there are 39 million individuals withdrawing from the labour market over the same timeframe.

The period of the financial crisis has also seen developing nations replace developed nations in leading global economic growth. According to the International Monetary Fund (2013), developed nations accounted for 29 percent of incremental global nominal GDP from 2007 to 2013, and the remaining 71 percent were attributed to developing nations.

In many respects, we have grown accustomed over the past few decades to sustained global economic growth, which has simultaneously increased living standards worldwide and reduced extreme poverty in aggregate. In spite of the global population rising to more than 2 billion in the past twenty-five years, the number of individuals living in extreme poverty fell by 650 million to 1.3 billion. Yet the benefits of sustained economic growth were not enjoyed evenly. The gap between the richest and poorest nation-states has become wider: 13 percent of the worlds population (approximately 500 million) received 45 percent of the worlds income (>USD 11,500 PPP), and 42 percent of the global population (approximately 2.1 billion) receive 9 percent of the worlds income (
