This book was released on 1999 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: August 1997 The predictability of a transition economy's institutional framework may well influence the amount of foreign direct investment and economic growth the economy can expect. Building reliable institutions that support a market system is widely believed to be critical to a successful economic transition. Brunetti, Kisunko, and Weder present indicators on the predictability of the institutional framework across twenty transition economies--indicators of the predictability of rules, political stability, the security of property rights, the reliability of the judiciary, and the lack of corruption. They then investigate whether these indicators can explain differences in economic performance. The results suggest that the predictability of the institutional framework may indeed explain a large part of differences in foreign direct investment and in economic growth among transition economies. Political stability and secure property rights are particularly important to entrepreneurial confidence in the economy. This paper--a product of the Office of the Chief Economist and Senior Vice President, Development Economics--was produced as a background paper for World Development Report 1997: The Role of the State in a Changing World. The study was funded in part by the Research Support Budget under the research projects Cross-Country Indicators of Institutional Uncertainty (RPO 680-51) and Indicators of Government Quality as Perceived by the Private Sector (RPO 681-52).
Book Synopsis Creating Social Trust in Post-Socialist Transition by : J. Kornai
Download or read book Creating Social Trust in Post-Socialist Transition written by J. Kornai and published by Springer. This book was released on 2004-06-25 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beneficial social and economic exchange relies on a certain level of trust. But trust is a delicate matter, not least in the former socialist countries where illegitimate behaviour by governments made distrust a habit. The chapters in this volume analyze the causes and the effects of the lack of social trust in post-socialist countries. The contributions originated in the Collegium Budapest project on Honesty and Trust: Theory and Experience in the Light of the Post-Socialist Transition. A second volume entitled, Building a Trustworthy State in Post-Socialist Transition , is being published simultaneously.
Book Synopsis Institution Building and Growth in Transition Economies by : Thorsten Beck
Download or read book Institution Building and Growth in Transition Economies written by Thorsten Beck and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2005 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on the recent literature on economic institutions and the origins of economic development, the authors offer a political economy explanation of why institution building has varied so much across transition economies. They identify dependence on natural resources and the historical experience of these countries during socialism as major determinants of institution building during transition by influencing the political structure and process during the initial years. Their empirical analysis shows that countries that are more reliant on natural resources and spent a longer time under socialist governments are more likely to see former communists remain in power and to start the transition process with less open political systems, with negative repercussions for the development of market-compatible institutions. Using natural resource reliance and the years under socialism to extract the exogenous component of institution building, the authors also show the importance of institutions in explaining the variation in economic development and growth across transition economies during the first decade of transition.

Book Synopsis Standardizing the World by : Francesco Duina
Download or read book Standardizing the World written by Francesco Duina and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2023 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The EU has pursued many trade pacts across the world. This is part of its foreign policy: as the third largest economy in the world and lacking hard power, the EU relies on trade agreements to project its interests. These are often complex and far-reaching initiatives that have the potential to shape not only economic but also political and social life in the EU and its trading partners. In Standardizing the World, Francesco Duina and Crina Viju-Miljusevic have gathered a group of leading experts to present an unprecedented assessment of the EU's efforts to standardize a wide array of economic, political, and social aspects of life through its trade agreements across the globe. Drawing on economic sociology and constructivist strands in international political economy, the volume examines what is being standardized, the extent to which the EU has been able to project its worldviews, and what explains the observable patterns of standardization across policy areas and geographies. Ten leading scholars from across the world offer as many chapters on EU agreements with all major trading partners and cover efforts in social and labor rights, the environment, investments, rule of law and anti-corruption, agriculture and food quality, services, public procurement, sustainable development, and more. Their findings paint a picture of a dynamic EU capable of projecting its worldviews across the globe that is nonetheless not always consistent or successful. Standardizing the World provides a wide-ranging and rigorous understanding of standardization in trade agreement as well as the EU's abilities to project its power and worldviews across the globe.
Book Synopsis Restoration of Class Society in Russia? by : Jouko Nikula

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title was first published in 2002: Advancing the understanding of a transition society, this book presents an in-depth analysis of social structures in modern Russia. Using unique survey data spanning nearly a decade, it describes and analyzes Russia’s social development and class formation during the 1990s.

The result is an impressive and influential work which will make stimulating reading for researchers, academics and practitioners in the fields of Sociology, Politics and Economics as well as Russian specialists.
Book Synopsis European Dictatorships by : Gerhard Besier
Download or read book European Dictatorships written by Gerhard Besier and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2014-01-03 with total page 710 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How could it happen that continental Europe became a “Europe of the Dictatorships“ in the twentieth century? It requires some effort to understand such processes. It is insufficient to observe merely the dictatorships and their mechanisms, one must also incorporate the seemingly harmless history leading up to that time and, above all, the transitions that took place. The book begins with a description of the historical situation after the First World War. Europe’s brutalization through colonial wars and inter-European conflicts, carried out using means of mass extermination, led to fractures in civilized cultures. What follows in the second section is another state-by-state organized design of the transition from countries that were fascist (and countries that were made fascist) into communist states established in accordance with the Soviet model. The third part of the book is devoted to the history of the “Eastern Bloc” states from 1953 to 2013.
