This edition of the Talking Economics Digest looks at a range of issues Sri Lanka needs to tackle in managing the ‘middle-income transition’. Articles cover the spectrum of development issues — education, tourism, migration, youth development, poverty, and environment, along with popular feature sections like ‘Fast Facts’. There is also a special feature article in which IPS Executive Director, Dr. Saman Kelegama, gives his take on the economic outlook for 2014 in the global economy and Sri Lanka. In keeping with the theme, we also provide readers with a reading list of ‘must read’ research articles by global experts related to the middle-income transition.
The Talking Economics Digest is a compilation of articles written by IPS researchers and published on our blog ‘Talking Economics’ in the last 6 months, together with special feature segments.
