Until recently, students of development have put much more energy into understanding the causes and consequences of absolute poverty than of inequality. But globalization - with its new opportunities for winners and losers, and its new insecurities and competitive pressures - is changing that. Nowhere is the issue of inequality more worrying than in Latin America, the setting for many of the world's most unequal societies. This book presents a dozen ideas or "tools" meant to make life in Latin America more equitable and fair for the great majority of its people - for not only the rich, a small elite, but for the rest. Change and reform in the direction of greater fairness will require not only political leadership and technical know-how on the part of government officials and legislators, but support and input from the progressive business community, the increasingly effective and vocal civil society, and students and intellectuals.
