Leaving no-one behind in Bangladesh: the case for a new political settlement

Research output: Chapter or section in a book/report/conference proceeding › Chapter or section

Abstract

With Bangladesh now moving towards middle-income country status, the dynamics of its policy response to extreme poverty will inevitably change. This chapter directly addresses this challenge by highlighting the need for a new inclusive political settlement which realigns the distribution of responsibility for poverty reduction action and resource mobilisation between the extreme poor themselves and other duty bearers in society. Behind this simple formulation however lies much complexity. The chapter introduces and examines this complexity, to arrive at some more simple propositions conducive to policy and practice.
