Chapter 7 in Privatisation against the European Social Model, 2009, pp 93-111 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract This chapter covers privatisation, which has occurred over the past three decades, in the industrial sector. The chapter is divided into a consideration of the experiences in the former socialist economies of the Central and Eastern European countries and then of the experiences in the predominantly capitalist economies of Western Europe. The intention is to convey the driving forces behind privatisation in each case and to review the effects of the privatisations on economic performance.
