The Way

The impact of micro finance initiatives on poor (often illiterate) women is discussed in this paper. The way women begin to understand market forces and negotiate the best terms for themselves is examined. This seems to link to increasing confidence, a stronger voice and finally negotiating a space for themselves. It is observed that if planned empowerment inputs of any type are also provided, the gains are exponential and go much deeper. This paper draws examples from three initiatives: 1. A micro finance scheme for women introduced in one district of the state of Rajasthan, India; 2. An initiative that was introduced as a subsidiary activity for an agricultural intensification scheme supported by IFAD in four districts of Bangladesh; 3. The profile of one woman in the state of Chhattisgarh, India who has worked with the State Administration to change her own life and that of many other women.

The Impact

The objective of this paper is to estimate the impact of domestic policy on comparative advantage of agriculture in the South. I utilize estimates of projected prices in a market-centered agriculture to examine the degree of insulation from market forces for major crops produced in the South and to calculate the relative net returns per acre in the absence of commodity programs. The price and net returns are probably below long-term equilibriums but are useful measures of relative prices and returns among commodities even if the returns are negative.

The Impact

AbstractThis study yields the impact of firm size as a determinant of employment. Using the theoretical framework of labor elasticities, it is argued that Small and Medium sized Enterprises (SME’s) are superior in creating jobs if an increase in their share - by reducing the share of large firms - stimulates the aggregate demand for labor. This could be due to a (static) more labor intensive production technology and/or a (dynamic) higher efficiency. The so determined Mittelstands-hypothese is theoretically and empirically examined. Further - from an ordoliberal perspective - the question is raised whether other indicators are more qualified to boost employment and to refresh market forces in the longrun.
