Book Synopsis Three Essays on the Political Economy of Reform by : Bogdan Catalin Buduru

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this thesis is to investigate the transition toward a market economy from a political economy perspective. The goal is to trace the link between the polity-formation process and successful economic reform by identifying the factors that favour or hinder the adjustment efforts. The first essay, entitled "Determinants of Success in Transition", accounts for the dissimilar economic trajectories of transition countries. The aim is to show why the ability to implement reforms is different across countries. A bargaining framework is used to model the political sector. The key endogenous variables are the size of the asset transfer to the private sector and the magnitude of the compensation payments. The main exogenous variables are the relative bargaining power, the magnitude of the threat points, and the transaction costs of providing compensation. The most important theoretical result shows that the higher the opposition's threat point and bargaining power, the larger the asset transfer. The second essay, entitled "Initial Conditions and Economic Reform", is an empirical study exploring the impact of a comprehensive set of factors on the ability to initiate and implement economic reforms by countries in transition. The variables measuring these factors belong to three groups, characterizing the macroeconomic and structural distortions inherited at the start of transition, the competitiveness of the political markets at the polity-defining stage, and the elements affecting the ability to solve coordination and collective action problems. While the regression analysis finds that variables from all groups influence capacity for reform, the factors characterizing the behaviour of the political market at the onset of transition played a central role. The third essay, entitled "Transaction Costs, Strategic Interaction, and Farm Restructuring", offers a transaction cost explanation for the different paths of organizational adjustment in the case of the former state and collective farms in Czech Republic. The focus is on the strategic interaction among the stakeholders in large-scale agricultural organizations. In the presence of a neutral institutional environment, the number of players involved in the intra-organizational process, their ability to make collective decisions, and their perceived payoffs in alternative farming structures determine the restructuring outcome.

Book Synopsis The Political Economy of Policy Reform by : John Williamson
Download or read book The Political Economy of Policy Reform written by John Williamson and published by Peterson Institute. This book was released on 1994 with total page 630 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Policymakers around the world have increasingly agreed that macroeconomic discipline, microeconomic liberalization, and outward orientation are prerequisites for economic success. But what are the political conditions that make economic transformation possible? At a conference held at the Institute for International Economics, leaders of economic reform recounted their efforts to bring about change and discussed the impact of the political climate on the success of their efforts. In this book, these leaders explore the political conditions conducive to the success of policy reforms. Did economic crisis strengthen the hands of the reformers? Was the rapidity with which reforms were instituted crucial? Did the reformers have a "honeymoon" period in which to transform the economy? The authors answer these and other questions, as well as providing first-hand accounts of the politically charged atmosphere surrounding reform efforts in their countries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now, more than ever, the world needs growth-oriented and socially inclusive policymaking. Is the world giving up on the promise of ever-greater prosperity for all, on functioning democratic institutions, and on long-term peace? Is the special set of circumstances that led to the recent rapid growth in emerging markets unlikely to be present in the future? Will the second decade of the twenty first century end with “secular stagnation”? Does the rise of authoritarianism, populism, and fanatic nihilism—all experienced over the last few years—threaten to unravel what has been built painstakingly since the catastrophe of World War II? Kemal Dervis addresses these and similar questions in this thought-provoking series of essays written for Project Syndicate from 2011 to 2015. The essays are organized in three sections: global economic interdependence, inequality and the political economy of reform, and the specific challenge of Europe. The common theme is the need for growth-oriented and socially inclusive policymaking in an interdependent world. These kinds of policies offer the potential for another wave of unprecedented human progress aided by breathtaking new technologies. However, a huge and destabilizing disruption is possible if policymaking is not globally cooperative and is not focused on inclusion and greater equity. These essays synthesize the experience and analysis of a scholar and policymaker with national, regional, and international experience at the highest levels. Dervis exhibits a passion for combining strongly held values with political feasibility.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1997, this collection of articles and essays analyses the political economy of reform and change in Eastern Europe during the years of Gorbachev’s perestroika and the years immediately following the fall of the Berlin wall and the collapse of the Soviet Union. Written by Polish economist Jan Winiecki, between 1984 and 1996, this work explores the issue of the feasibility of reform and change during the period of decline and collapse of communist economic order and, later, the emergence of the capitalist economic order in the post-communist Eastern Europe.

Book Synopsis Essays in Trespassing by : Albert O. Hirschman
Download or read book Essays in Trespassing written by Albert O. Hirschman and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1981-08-31 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together fourteen articles and papers written by Albert O. Hirschman. About half deal with the interaction of economic development with politics and ideology, the area in which Hirschman perhaps has made most noted contributions. Among these papers are 'The Rise and Declines of Development Economics', a magisterial and yet pointed essay in intellectual history and his famous article 'The Changing Tolerance for Income Inequality in the Course of Economic Development'. Hirschman's ability to trespass - or rather his inability not to trespass - from one social science to another and beyond is the unifying characteristic of the volume. Authoritative, searching surveys alternate here with essays presenting some of Hirschman's characteristic inventions, for instance the 'tunnel effect' and 'obituary-improving activities'. Three of the papers have not been published previously and a number of introductory notes have been especially drafted for the present volume to evoke the intellectual-political climate in which certain groups of essays were written.
