Book Synopsis Global Long-term Economic Growth and the Economic Transformation of Poland and Eastern Europe by : Stanisław Gomułka
Download or read book Global Long-term Economic Growth and the Economic Transformation of Poland and Eastern Europe written by Stanisław Gomułka and published by Wydawnictwo Naukowe Scholar. This book was released on with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the characteristic facts concerning the “catching-up countries” is the exceptionally large variation in their per capita annual rate of growth, from about zero to about 10%. The papers published in this monograph show that this rate is strongly dependent on the rate of investment, the quality of the labour force and the quality of institutions. The rate of investment is, in turn, dependent on the rate of domestic savings. In Poland, domestic savings are shown to have been and continue to be very low by international standards. The trend rate of growth of about 3.7% has been about 2 pp. higher than that of the most developed economies, mainly thanks to the development of modern market institutions and a new private sector, and partly thanks to foreign direct investments and a significant inflow of finance from the European Union (EU). The data also show that by far the least successful transformation in Eastern Europe has taken place in Ukraine. (Author’s Introduction) *** Our discussion is limited to the Technology Frontier Area (TFA) of the world. The central question is how the area’s innovation rate changes over time in the course of centuries. The analysis indicates that the pattern of change of the innovation rate over time may be eventually hat-shaped. This Hate-Shape Relationship is an empirical law that is given a theoretical interpretation. It is in part a prediction based on the author’s model of innovation and growth. Its acceleration and steady growth segments correspond well to the past reality. Its slowdown part is the central thesis of the book.

Book Synopsis Democracy and Efficiency in the Economic Enterprise by : Ugo Pagano
Download or read book Democracy and Efficiency in the Economic Enterprise written by Ugo Pagano and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2002-03-11 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The collapse of central planning was hailed as evidence of the economic and moral superiority of capitalism over any possible alternative. The essays in this book challenge that claim. The case for more democratic forms of enterprise management is considered from a variety of viewpoints. One chapter deals with the philosophical justification for enterprise democracy. The remaining chapters are devoted to the question of efficiency, which has been central to economic debates about ownership and control. The orthodox belief amongst economists is that any shift to more democratic forms of enterprise control would be unworkable. The essays in this book provide a thorough theoretical and empirical critique of this orthodoxy.

Book Synopsis Eastern Europe in Crisis and the Way Out by : Christopher Saunders
Download or read book Eastern Europe in Crisis and the Way Out written by Christopher Saunders and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-07-27 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this volume practitioners and theorists from East and West assess the results of four years of transformation in Eastern Europe. In a general assessment of the stabilisation policies pursued, some authors take a critical view of the 'conventional' monetary and fiscal restrictive programmes which have helped to bring down inflation and to introduce elements of the market economy, but have also left the economies concerned with heavily reduced output and real incomes. An evolutionary strategy of structural transformation, and demand management should play a primary role in recovery from the 'transformational recession'. Further issues discussed are the reform of the financial sector; liberalisation of foreign trade; privatisation and restructuring; and the social aspects of transformation.
Book Synopsis The Transition in Eastern Europe, Volume 1 by : Olivier Jean Blanchard
Download or read book The Transition in Eastern Europe, Volume 1 written by Olivier Jean Blanchard and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2008-04-15 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When communism fell in 1989, the question for most Eastern European countries was not whether to go to a market economy, but how to get there. Several years later, the difficult process of privatization and restructuring continues to concern the countries of the region. The Transition in Eastern Europe, Volumes 1 and 2 is an analysis of the experiences of various countries making the transition to market economies and examines the most important challenges still in store. Volume 1, Country Studies, gives an in-depth, country-by-country analysis of various reform experiences, including historical backgrounds and discussions of policies and results to date. The countries analyzed are Poland, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, eastern Germany, Slovenia, and Russia. Written by leading economists, some of whom helped shape local and national reforms, this volume identifies common progress, common difficulties, and tentative solutions to the problems of economic transition. Volume 2, Restructuring, focuses on specific issues of transition, including how to design labor market institutions, privatization, new fiscal structures, and bankruptcy laws; how to reorganize foreign trade; and how to promote foreign direct investment. The articles, written by experts in the field, will be of direct help to those involved in the transition process. These volumes provide a standard reference on economic transition in the region for policymakers in Eastern Europe and in western countries, for international agencies concerned with the transition process, and for anyone interested in learning about the dramatic changes that have recently occurred in Eastern Europe.

Download or read book Can Communist Economies Transform Incrementally? written by Alan H. Gelb and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 1993 with total page 55 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How does China's approach to reform -- incrementally removing constraints on market behavior -- square with the opposing "big bang" thesis that partial reform is probably worse than no reform because it leaves economic agents constrained neither by plan nor by markets? Are there rational bases for these widely different approaches to fundamental economic change? If so, what is transferable from China?
