Abstract

The studies that constitute this supplement to Population and Development Review came about as a result of a UNU-WIDER project “The Economics and Politics of Social Protection” that took an integrated approach to the study of taxation and social protection systems in developing countries. The collection was conceptualized and shaped during discussions in a Symposium organized in Mexico City in February 2016, and in the end culminated in eight studies that contribute to the literature on social assistance.
