We provide a comprehensive approach for analyzing the evolution of poverty using Mozambique as a case study. Bringing together data from disparate sources, we develop a novel "back-casting" framework that links a dynamic computable general equilibrium model to a micro-simulation poverty module....

We find that Mexico gains from NAFTA only when it also removes domestic distortions in agriculture. In that case, agriculture...
