This book addresses the overarching theme of promoting inclusive and sustainable development through twelve contributions that discuss perspectives from emerging economies and policies for a better world. The contributions are divided into four sections -- Employment and Livelihoods; Capabilities and Mobilities; Sustainable and Inclusive Urbanization; and Perspectives for Policies. The first section contains two chapters that deal with employment and labour markets. In the second section, there are four contributions that discuss capabilities (education and health) and their roles in intergenerational mobility, contributing to poverty reduction and inclusive development. The third section comprises of four chapters concerning various aspects of urbanisation in diverse empirical contexts. And the last section consists of two contributions providing policy perspectives. The volume is thus a diverse mix of empirical research and provides critical insights into the Global South’s development process. It is an important reference for all those concerned with sustainable and inclusive development. Development economics. 61731 Economic development. 58075 Social structure.
