Professor Issam A.W. Mohamed

The date of South secession is coming soon at the 9th July 2011. However, there is the problem of people from the south who live in the north.

Emily C. Hannum

This chapter investigates poverty and social welfare among China’s minority groups.

We then discuss recent economic trends and introduce some of the main government policies targeted toward ethnic minorities. With this context …

Measuring Poverty And Human Capital Development In Sudan, Professor Issam A.W. Mohamed

The present paper introduces an analysis and assessment of measurements for human development indices in Sudan. It is empirically concluded that human welfare is invisible. The parameters are very low. Strategies are needed to provide for basic …
