Economic Development in Tajikistan

Abstract

Tajikistan has experienced steady economic growth and achieved rapid poverty reduction over the past two decades, mainly due to a favourable external environment. However, Tajikistan’s economy is highly dependent on remittances, agriculture and a small exports base. This annotated bibliography looks at key documents published since 2014 relating to economic development in Tajikistan. For each resource, a couple of brief paragraphs describe the document including its methodology (where available) and main findings. Then recommendations from the document are highlighted, and any limitations of the report (such as relating to data collection, analysis or findings) are highlighted if stated. A number of databases, indices and further resources have been flagged as footnotes or in the key websites section.
