Economic Growth in the 1990s : Learning from a Decade of Reform

The authors examine the impact of growth
of key policy and institutional reforms: macroeconomic
stabilization, trade liberalization, deregulation of
finance, privatization, deregulation of utilities,
modernization of the public sector with a view to increasing
its effectiveness and accountability, and the spread of
democracy and decentralization. They draw lessons both from
a policy and institutional perspective and from the
perspective of country experiences about how reforms in each
policy and institutional area have affected growth.
