This study looks at the impact of liberalisation on the development and direction of the milk industry in Uganda. In the beginning, the changes brought benefits for those involved in the industry, including higher prices and increased employment opportunities, coupled with technology-related advances such as the introduction of modern processing and ultra-heat-treated (UHT) milk processing plants. In the long run however, liberalisation led to prices plummeting which resulted in milk being neither processed nor purchased; and some of the plants eventually closed. More widely, the study considers the economics and politics of the milk sub-sector and the relative influences of the state and private sectors on the industry. Finally, it analyses the institutional rigidities that are impeding the progress of the industry and its contribution to development in the southwest of the country.

Inequality and Inclusive Growth in Rich Countries: Shared Challenges and Contrasting Fortunes
Rising inequality in income and wealth across the OECD has been widely recognised and identified as a major concern&#x3b; <em>Inequality and Inclusive Growth in Rich Countries</em> links this phenomenon with stagnation in wages and incomes for ordinary working households in order to address the challenge of promoting growth and prosperity. <p/>The concentration of wealth at the top of society is now seen as a threat to social and political stability. <em>Inequality and Inclusive Growth in Rich Countries</em> aims to identify what structures and policies are associated with success or failure in limiting the rise in inequality and promoting income growth for those in the middle and lower reaches of the income distribution. It analyses the varying experiences of ten rich countries over recent decades in depth, revealing that there are indeed responses that governments and societies can adopt, and that stagnation and rising inequality do not have to be accepted, but can be combatted given the political will and capacity.<br>
