Debate and Difference within the OECD-DAC Poverty Network Approaches to Social Protection" (2007) challenges her assertion that POVNET members make key decisions without the input of developing countries but agrees with most of her remarks on donor fear of social protection costs, differences in World Bank thought on social risk management & the Nordic idea of comprehensive social policy, the value of public-private micro-insurance & reinsurance to poverty reduction, & the need for sustained political will as well as the skill of officials & social partners to enshrine social protection in national policy.
