Recenzii

“The contributors to Dayton-Johnson's volume are a mix of economists working in government, academia, and international organizations such as the World Bank and the Inter-American Development Bank. Readers will be interested in their research findings regarding the growth of the middle class since 2000 and related questions. The editor's introduction includes a clear explanation of the various income-based definitions.” (Dennis Gilbert, Latin American Research Review, Vol. 51 (1), 2016)
