As its principal architect, and as minister with responsibility for its implementation, he was among the pioneers of a new approach to poverty relief known today by the acronym CCT, or Conditional Cash Transfers. Levy provides an insider's account of the origins and evolution of his programme...[his] book is a welcome contribution to the debate over the effectiveness of current approaches to poverty." --Maxine Molyneux, Institutte for the Study of the Americas, University of London, "Journal of Latin American Studies"<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p> <b>Santiago Levy</b> is former general director of the Mexican Social Security Institute.
