Paperback. Num Pages: 356 pages, biography. BIC Classification: HBJK; JFC; JFF; JHB; KCM; KCP. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 216 x 140. .
This book provides fresh insight into rural poverty in Latin America. It draws on six case studies of recent rural household surveys - for Chile, Colombia, El Salvador, Honduras, Paraguay, and Peru - and several thematic studies examining land, labour, rural financial markets, the environments, and disadvantaged groups. Recognizing the heterogeneity within the rural economy, the studies characterize three important groups - small farmers, landless farm workers, and rural non-farm workers - and provide quantitative and qualitative analyses of the determinants of household income.
