Liberalization and its Consequences

Edited by Werner Baer and Joseph L. Love

in Books from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: The essays in this volume describe, analyse and compare the achievements and the failures of societies that adopted market-based economies within a democratic polity after a long period of communist rule (Russia and Eastern Europe) or military authoritarianism (Latin America). Together, they also trace the rocky course of liberal economic policies over the whole twentieth century.
