Lawrence B. Lindsey
Economic Puppetmasters: Lessons from the Halls of Power

y.
Publisher:
Description: Drawing from his rich experiences as a governor of the Federal Reserve Board and as an international economic consultant, Lawrence B. Lindsey provides an engaging, incisive analysis of the human motivations and the decision-making processes that shape global economic events. He affords readers a unique view of the intended and unintended effects of public policy on both the domestic and the international political economy. Lindsey argues that the current bureaucratic and philosophical structure of the leading nations of the world was designed to battle past challenges, most notably the cold war. He asserts that nations can effectively confront new economic and financial crises only by unleashing the power of democratic capitalism to establish innovative global economic arrangements. This lively, insightful book provides an insider`s perspective on the bureaucratic structure of governmental institutions and the incentives and limitations of the individuals who head those [detailed...]

Description: Development finance is one of the foremost challenges facing African Countries and the international community in the new century. African countries in particular have experience modest economic recovery during the 19990s. Vijay S. Makhan explores these improvements, while describing the `vicious circle` in which the economic structure cannot generate enough savings and export earnings needed to finance the development and mount a sustained assault on poverty.

Economic Reform In China And India: Development Experience In A Comparative Perspective

2006 y.
Publisher:
Description: Recent acceleration of the Indian economic growth rate from six to eight per cent has sparked worldwide speculation that India is about to catch up with China and become another Asian miracle economy. Economic Reform in China and India examines this prospect, reviewing the development strategies pursued by the two countries over the last 50 years in general, and exploring recently introduced reform measures in particular. The culmination of many years of research by specialists in these economies, this book assesses the performance of China and India at both macro and sectoral levels (including economic, social, political and environmental aspects), illustrates the reasons why China has outperformed India in the past, and identifies the obstacles that India will face in its attempts to catch up with China. Providing solutions for China and India that can be applied to other developing countries, this book will be invaluable for researchers, academics and students focusing on [detailed...]

Economic Reform and the Liberalisation of the Indian Economy: Essays in Honour of Richard T. Shand

2003 y.
Publisher:
Description: Book DescriptionA decade after the implementation of the initial wave of economic reforms in India, the process of transforming the country into a fully developed market economy continues. A hallmark of the globalized economy is its ability to sustain competitive efficiency which, in turn, can lead to enhanced growth. This important new book gauges how far India has been successful in achieving this goal by implementing the correct economic reform measures. There is a severe lack of solid analyticalevidence or rigorous scientific studies on the success of India?s economic reforms. The expert authors attempt to redress this imbalance with a thorough analysis of key aspects of the state of the Indian economy since 1991. Keeping poverty reductionas the major objective, they comprehensively discuss and identify further reform measures which are vital in the monetary, fiscal and agriculture sectors in order to maintain and improve the momentum of growth. When compared with East [detailed...]

Economic Reform in Japan: Can the Japanese Change?

y.
Publisher:
Description: At the start of a new century, Japan finds itself confronted with an economic challenge that is unlike any it has faced since the end of World War II. Most commentators agree that Japan has to change. The issue is the form and direction that such a change must take. While many Western economists forcefully urge the Japanese to become more like the US, there are other academics who have registered strong reservations to such a simplistic solution. In this volume, noted scholars take opposing positions on key issues including financial reform, corporate change and international trade. The editor contributes a thought-provoking introduction which also presents an overview of the topic. The papers gathered here present an opportunity for readers to consider the underlying conflicts in Japan?s economy and society that makes choosing a new direction such a difficult proposition. Economic Reform in Japan is a coherent and eminently readable book designed to provoke further [detailed...]

Economic Reform in Vietnam

y.
Publisher:
Description: Vietnam, along with China, stands out as a rare success story among transition economies. This authoritative study of the reform process since 1989 pays particular attention to the way the macroeconomics framework can contribute to an environment that encourages human development and helps to reduce poverty. Thus there are chapters on macroeconomics reforms, international trade policies, the role of the state, rural development, education and health, environmental issues and poverty and gender inequality. Although areas of weakness are indicated, emphasis is placed on the success Vietnam has experienced compared to other transition economies. The lessons of both the successes and failures of the reform process for policymakers elsewhere are outlined. [detailed...]

Economic Reforms in Chile : From Dictatorship to Democracy (Development and Inequality in the Market Economy)

y.
Publisher:
Description: Articulate and provocative, Richardo Ffrench-Davis offers the most comprehensive and timely assessment available of Chilean economic reform, from the military dictatorship of Pinochet in the 1970s up to the `reforms of reforms` made by the democratic governments in the 1990s. Written in accessible and readable prose, Economic Reforms in Chile begins with an overview of the Chilean economy during the last fifty years. This historical time frame is divided into three periods of economic reform. The first period covers the Pinochet regime, during which the more orthodox neoliberalism was implemented. The second period includes the Pinochet dictatorship, during which economic policy shifted toward pragmatism, particularly in the areas of trade and finance, it also includes the crisis of 1982 and its effects. The third period begins in 1990 with the return to democratic elections and the significant reforms to prior reforms. This section also examines the search [detailed...]

The paper attempts to identify a number of key macroeconomic and structural areas where the slower reformers in the group might benefit from the experiences of the faster reformers. [detailed...]

Economic Reforms in New Democracies: A Social-Democratic Approach

y.
Publisher:
Description: In this book the authors assess the experiences of transition in Southern Europe, Latin America and Eastern Europe in order to determine what the conditions for successful transitions are. They argue against the `big bang` approach, espoused by many advisors to reforming countries, on the grounds that this approach bypasses the newly formed institutions of democracy that ultimately may undermine the necessary consensus to support painful economic reforms. The most successful reforms, they argue, have been those agreed upon through a process of democratic negotiation. A new democracy must offer politically important groups incentives to process their demands within the democratic institutional framework, otherwise, their support will be tenuous and thesystem may collapse under the strains incurred by painful economic reforms.

This year?s report?s main conclusion is that trade liberalization alone will not boost growth and poverty reduction in Africa. In 2003, Africa was the second fastest growing developing region, yet, only 5 countries achieved the 7% or higher growth rate required to reach the Millennium Development Goal of halving poverty by 2015. FDIs inflows continuedto increase but still remain largely concentrated in the natural resources sector. Although the regional outlook for 2004 is positive, with growth projected to accelerate, there are still several downside risks to be faced. [detailed...]
