| Summary: | Among emerging economies, the region
of Latin America and the Caribbean has been the hardest hit
by the great global deceleration that started six years ago.

the first back-to back years of recession in more than 30
years. This economic downturn is understandably having some
adverse effects. After faster economic growth supported by
the commodity boom brought significant social progress, with
historic reductions in poverty and inequality, a drop in
economic activity is causing families to feel the pinch. |
