Summary Annotation This volume explores the link between structural transformation and inclusive development by examining three thematic pillars: #149; The limits of conventional macroeconomics #149; The long-run agenda of structural transformation and the development of capabilities #149; Inequality and its macroeconomic consequences The book looks at trends in the functional distribution of income and explores their possible consequences by developing a two-country macroeconomic model for openeconomies. It also reinterprets social protection from the perspective of inclusive development and structural transformation. Through a combination of country-specificand global evidence as well as macroeconomic modeling and literature surveys, it seeks to answer the question of whether growing inequality in many countries combinedwith stagnant real incomes was one of the sources of the recent global crisis.
