520 The Paraguayan economy did not suffer debt crises in the
eighties and had significant growth rates in the second
half on the seventies, but poverty remained a problem.
Understanding the performance and spatial distribution of
poverty and inequality over a period of more than ten
years can shed new light on structural causes behind what
seems to be a low growth - high poverty - high inequality
trap in Paraguay. How did poverty and inequality change
during the 1990s. Did inequality reduce income growth?
What were the growth determinants and what are the main
forces driving inequality changes? These are the questions
being answered in this book.
