摘要

本研究评估了撒哈拉以南非洲（SSA）地区的经济增长在减贫中的作用，并将其与全球其他地区按时间临界点进行了直接比较。研究结果表明：(i) 与全球同类国家相比，撒哈拉以南非洲经济体的表现存在巨大差距；(ii) 2000 年代中期以后，增长对撒哈拉以南非洲减贫的作用有所改善；(iii) 与全球其他地区相比，收入不平等加剧对撒哈拉以南非洲次区域减贫的有害影响较小；(iv) 自 2000 年代中期以来，依赖资源的撒哈拉以南非洲经济体在将增长转化为减贫方面的表现有所改善。撒南非洲与其全球同类地区在增长引起的减贫方面的趋同，为实现到 2030 年消除全球极端贫困的可持续发展目标的前景注入了活力；然而，这也要求重新制定战略，以提高增长在该次区域未来减贫工作中的效力。

Re‐evaluating Africa's growth, poverty and inequality nexus

This study evaluates the role of growth in poverty reduction within the sub‐Saharan Africa (SSA) region in direct comparison to other global regions along time‐delineated thresholds. The study's results show (i) A significant gulf in the performance of SSA economies in comparison to their global cohorts; (ii) An improved role played by growth after the mid‐2000s for poverty reduction in SSA; (iii) A less deleterious impact of rising income inequality on poverty reduction within the SSA sub‐region relative to other global regions, and (iv) An improved performance of resource‐dependent SSA economies in translating growth to poverty reduction since the mid‐2000s. The convergence in growth‐induced poverty reduction between SSA and its global cohorts energizes prospects for attaining the Sustainable Development Goal of eradicating global extreme poverty by 2030; it however also calls for renewed strategies toward improving the efficacy of growth in future poverty reduction within the sub‐region.

期刊介绍： The Review of Development Economics is a leading journal publishing high-quality research in development economics. It publishes rigorous analytical papers, theoretical and empirical, which deal with contemporary growth problems of developing countries, including the transition economies. The Review not only serves as a link between theorists and practitioners, but also builds a bridge between development economists and their colleagues in related fields. While the level of the Review of Development Economics is academic, the materials presented are of value to policy makers and researchers, especially those in developing countries.
