“…Luego, a partir de 2008, la expansión económica se desaceleró, al igual que la disminución en los niveles de pobreza (Gráfi co 3). La relación anterior se encuentra ampliamente estudiada en la literatura de pobreza por ingresos y en menor medida en términos de pobreza multidimensional (Santos et al, 2019).…”

“…Este trabajo constituye un aporte a la literatura interesada en examinar la relación entre disparidades territoriales de pobreza y crecimiento, para el caso argentino, desde un enfoque multidimensional. El trabajo se encuadra dentro de aquella literatura que explora la relación entre crecimiento y desigualdad (Brida et al, 2020), pero especialmente en aquella que concibe a la pobreza como un fenómeno multidimensional (Alkire & Santos, 2010;Santos et al, 2019). Esto implica que ser pobre no se limita a la falta de ingresos, sino que incluye múltiples dimensiones del espacio de bienestar (educación, acceso a servicios, vivienda y empleo y seguridad so-cial).…”

*Full article is in SpanishEnglish Abstract: This article analyses the recent evolution of territorial disparities in Argentina, measured by a Multidimensional Poverty Index, by carrying out a formal convergence analysis between agglomerates. In particular, the existence of absolute β-convergence and σ-convergence is tested. The information comes from the microdata of the Permanent Household Survey. The results suggest that, although an end-to-end analysis of the period shows a decrease in poverty accompanied by a reduction in territorial disparities between the main urban agglomerates in Argentina, when disaggregating by subperiods, it is evident that in periods of economic growth (essentially from 2003 to 2009), territorial disparities increased. Conversely, in periods of stagnation, these disparities decrease.Spanish Abstract: Este articulo analiza la evolución reciente de las disparidades territoriales en Argentina, medida por un Índice de Pobreza Multidimensional, mediante un análisis formal de convergencia entre aglomerados. En particular, se testea la existencia de convergencia-β absoluta y convergencia-σ. La información proviene de los microdatos de la Encuesta Permanente de Hogares. Los resultados sugieren que, si bien en un análisis punta-a-punta del período se observa un a reducción de la pobreza acompañada de una reducción de las disparidades territoriales entre los principales aglomerados urbanos de Argentina, al desagregar por subperíodos, se evidencia que en los períodos de crecimiento económico (esencialmente del 2003 al 2009) se incrementaron las disparidades territoriales. En tanto que en los periodos de estancamiento, estas disparidades se redujeron.French Abstract: Ce travail analyse l’évolution récente des disparités territoriales en Argentine, mesurée à partir d’un Indice multidimensionnel de la pauvreté, sur la base d’une étude de la convergence entre les agglomérations urbaines. Il teste en particulier l’existence de la beta convergence absolue et de la sigma convergence. Les informations proviennent de microdonnées de l’Enquête permanente des ménages. Bien qu’une analyse ponctuelle de la période montre une réduction générale de la pauvreté accompagnée d’une réduction des disparités territoriales entre les principales agglomérations urbaines d’Argentine, la désagrégation par sous-périodes permet d’observer que pendant les périodes de croissance économique (essentiellement de 2003 à 2009), les disparités territoriales se sont accrues alors qu’en période de stagnation elles se sont réduites.

“…(Pham, and Pham, 2019). Economic development leads to monetary poverty reduction in aided countries, more than it reduces poverty as measured by the Multidimensional Poverty Index (Santos et al, 2019). This phenomenon can be explained across a broad range of policies that require deployment to alleviate poverty as measured through multiple criteria.…”

“…Empirical protocol We present here our preliminary results using a simple model, testing whether ODA, and official assistance influence the current HDI level. To develop this model, we rely on the following contributions: Roessler (2019), Kanmas and Sarantides (2016), Santos et al (2019). We also make use of the fruitful contributions and remarks of Alesina and Dollar (2000), Fleck and Kilby (2006) or Hammani et al (2020).…”

Foreign aid is aimed at creating a favourable environment capable to foster economic growth and development in poorer countries. Accordingly, recipient countries might rely to a certain extent on external aid to attaint higher welfare levels. In principle, donour’s aid-allocation preference, aided country policies, its institutional background, and economic environment are decisive in the aid effectiveness. Should not the previous conditions be met, could the country fall into the poverty trap. Contrary to a large strand of the literature measuring the role external funding has with regards to its contribution to welfare and growth, we show that Human Development Index is positively driven by internal factors, whilst foreign aid, and private funding have no significant effect. This is coherent with a more recent strand of the literature, suggesting that on average, aid is ineffective in recipient countries. JEL classification numbers: F35, H20, H83, O1. Keywords: Foreign Aid, HDI improvement, Developing Countries.

The Policy Research Working Paper Series disseminates the findings of work in progress to encourage the exchange of ideas about development issues. An objective of the series is to get the findings out quickly, even if the presentations are less than fully polished. The papers carry the names of the authors and should be cited accordingly. The findings, interpretations, and conclusions expressed in this paper are entirely those of the authors. They do not necessarily represent the views of the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development/World Bank and its affiliated organizations, or those of the Executive Directors of the World Bank or the governments they represent. Policy Research Working Paper 9181 Growth in emerging markets and developing economies (EMDEs) has generally disappointed since the 2009 global recession, with sizable forecast downgrades in most years. EMDEs continue to face downside risks to growth outlook over the next couple of years. These include heightened global policy uncertainty, trade tensions, spillovers from weaker-than-expected growth in major economies, and disorderly financial market developments. These risks are accompanied by region-specific risks, including geopolitical tensions, armed conflict, and severe weather events. If risks materialize, their impact on EMDEs depends on the magnitude of spillovers and domestic vulnerabilities. Since the 2009 global recession, external, corporate sector and sovereign vulnerabilities have risen in most EMDEs, leaving them less well-prepared for future shocks. Low-income countries, in particular, face elevated vulnerabilities, with about 40 percent of them currently in debt distress. Over the longer run, EMDEs also face weakening potential growth, reflecting decelerations in capital accumulation and productivity growth, as well as demographic headwinds. These constraints are likely to hamper growth in the next decade unless they are mitigated by ambitious and credible reform agendas. This paper is a product of the Prospects Group. It is part of a larger effort by the World Bank to provide open access to its research and make a contribution to development policy discussions around the world.
