APOLOGIES FOR CROSS POSTING - REPOST TO ANY LIST
The proper role of government in making and implementing economic policies
has received a lot of attention in recent days.
The World Bank just completed a development report summary that effectively
turned the free trade, export oriented development strategy on its head. You
can read a summary of that report at
http://www.worldbank.org/html/extpb/wdr97/english/wdr97sul.htm/
Further, the UNCTAD recently issued a press release (TAD/1847, 9-11-97)
which suggested several policy alternatives to the export oriented model. If
you would like to read this release, please send me a return email and I
will forward it to you (I received the release courtesy of:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]).
Additionally, you can read some further discussions of economic policy on my
web site listed below.
As always, your comments are welcome.
