A work on Integrated Macroeconomics Models for Poverty Analysis (IMMPA). It includes working papers originally circulated through the World Bank, as well as fresh material that places this important work in context.


Pierre-Richard Agenor's pioneering work on Integrated Macroeconomics Models for Poverty Analysis (IMMPAs) is cataloged for the first time in this must-read volume. A class of Computable General Equilibrium models, IMMPAs are designed to analyze the impact of adjustment policies on unemployment figures and poverty, particularly in the developing world. Including both working papers originally circulated through the World Bank, as well as new material that places this important work in its larger context, "Adjustment Policies, Poverty, and Unemployment" details the history and uses of these models to date, as well as points to future developments for their utilization.
