Insurance against poverty Flore Gubert - Journal of African economies Volume 16, number 1 .
Reducing risk-related vulnerability has moved up on both national and international development agendas, with major agencies such as the World Bank or the Asian Development Bank designing social protection programmes aimed at providing more secure living conditions in developing countries. Written by eminent economists, this book addresses the following three key questions: How important is risk for poverty? What lessons can be learned from studying existing, often informal, risk-sharing institutions for the design of broad-based social protection? What is the scope for designing new instruments for social protection?
