Why is Bolivia different from India? How can international development agencies get to grips with social and political inequality? [Draft]

Abstract

The current review builds on an earlier DFID piece of work when two years ago the Economic Policy and Research Department commissioned a literature review on inequality, with an associated series of seminars from scholars in the development studies community. The Social Development Department noted that this review had concentrated on \"economic\" inequality and thought it might be helpful if this were balanced by a complementary review looking at \"social\" and \"political\" inequality.
