| About Book: | The book Titled Education, Poverty and Income Distribution: Some Empirical Analysis and Policy Issues is an outcome of authors research report. It speaks about the perennial and conflicting issues of widespread poverty and inequality in income distribution and a possible way out. In a country like India, poverty and inequality in income distribution have hindered the pace of progress in many ways. The book highlights the reinforcing effect of income and human poverty which creates a vicious circle for the poor. Education as a dominant contributor towards building better human capital paves the way for uplifting poor by creating higher earning opportunities for the poor. The effects of education on poverty alleviation and on better income distribution are examined both at macro and micro levels through testing various intervening models. With extensive empirical analysis, the spread effect of education, intergenerational mobility and various policy issues about prioritising the levels of education to escape from poverty are emphasised. It is hoped, the book will serve as a source of knowledge for the researchers in the field of economics aspects of education, policy makers and planners in the areas of education and economics, sociologists in the areas of gender and equity etc. Any constructive comments will be highly appreciated from diversified readers. |
