Abstract

The purpose of this chapter is to define the meaning of the term “inclusive growth.” It is often used interchangeably with a suite of other terms, including “broad-based growth,” “shared growth,” and “pro-poor growth.” Many times it is unclear what people have in mind when they define growth as inclusive and how this type of growth relates to the widely discussed extensive and intensive growth patterns.
