Reviews
'. . . an important and necessary contribution. The authors make several innovative departures from standard thinking about macroeconomic policies, both in terms of goals and strategies. While the study is focussed on Kenya, much of the approach and most of the policy conclusions have direct relevance for a wide range of developing countries. . . this is an extremely valuable book, because it provides a clear, systematic and context-driven set of proposals for macroeconomic policies and development strategy that is directed to the generation of decent employment. This is something that is frequently talked about as the desired alternative strategy, but elaborations of this idea to make it practical and feasible are rare. This book is therefore an important weapon in the struggle to bring about more progressive macroeconomics as well as more inclusive development.'
