In such a situation if the formal sector is growing rapidly it is natural that the informal sector would benefit from the percolation effects. However, in reality the informal sector is characterized in terms of low productivity and meagre earnings, explaining considerable overlaps with poverty and slum-dwelling in cities.
Agglomeration economies work and they contribute to productivity growth as a result of which the real wages in the cities tend to be higher compared to the rural areas. Yet, urban poverty exists which warrant an explanation. Some of the reasons of course can be envisaged in terms of a high degree of heterogeneity this sector possesses. There are residual activities with almost no entry barriers and they often involve excess supplies of labour relative to demand.

Resource saving growth and opportunities for human capital formation


A world-wide problem that has posed serious concern is relating to the lack of surge in total factor productivity growth. The countries which are able to sustain high rates of growth or low growth rates at very high levels of per capita income are following the resource intensive path which can have serious repercussions in terms of future availability of resources. Faster economic growth based on total factor productivity growth, on the other hand, implies resource saving approaches being followed. Innovations resulting in technological progress, and better utilisation of the new technology are the key to higher output growth relative to input growth, which is defined as total factor productivity growth (TFPG). In other words, with the same amounts of inputs the obtainability of higher returns is envisaged as TFPG. ....
