Policy regimes and the political economy of poverty reduction in Malaysia[electronic resource] /Boo Teik Khoo. - Basingstoke :Palgrave Macmillan,2012. - 1 online resource.

Political Economy of Poverty Eradication in Malaysia: An Overview; K. Teik & K. Jin -- Development Strategies and Poverty Reduction; K. Teik -- Poverty and Inequality; K. Teik -- Welfare Regimes, Social Services and Poverty Reduction; H. Salleh -- Organized Groups, Development Strategies and Social Policies; F. Wah -- Developmental State Capacity and Institutional Reform; A. Embong -- Achievements, Limitations and Contradictions; K. Teik.

This book is an original, comprehensive and critical evaluation of Malaysia's 40-year strategy of 'poverty eradication' that has been successful in reaching its targets and yet controversial for being linked to the ethnically-oriented social engineering laid down by the New Economic Policy. Departing from narrowly focused studies of limited poverty reduction, the contributors to this volume of essays have brought together in-depth analyses of economic transformation, class and ethnic inequalities, social protection policies, the provision of key social services, political mobilization, and state capacity for planning. The result is a detailed examination of the scope and efficacy of changing policy regimes affecting Malaysia's post-colonial course of economic development, record of industrialization, and its relative resilience in adapting social policies to national pressures and global changes.
