Summary
"This book provides cutting-edge analytical insights into if and how the stated aims are likely to be achieved. The volume presents empirical analyses of key determinants of the MDG target variables which recognize that most of the MDG targets are endogenously related. These interdependencies are crucial not only in analysing the MDGs but also devising strategies aimed at their achievement."--BOOK JACKET.
