| Research Abstract |
The project aims to study the achievement and limitations of the (conditional) cash transfer programs in developing countries by comparing the programs of Brazil, Philippines and Kenya. While the programs were designed and implemented according to the basic principles of the cash transfers, the policy planners and administrators in the case countries were flexible enough to adjust the programs depending on the different economic, fiscal and administrative conditions. Proliferation of cash transfers in developing countries are closely related to the politics after democratization of these countries including the perception that the poor can be active participants of politics and economy as co-responsible for poverty reduction and social development.
