Economies in Transition:Conception, Status and Prospects

Edited by Allan Young, Ivan Teodorovic and Peter Koveos

in World Scientific Books from World Scientific Publishing Co. Pte. Ltd.

Abstract: To date, the record of economic transition has decidedly been mixed. The worldwide political climate is still in favor of economic reform and the process continues to have considerable momentum. On the other hand, this process now faces a number of formidable obstacles. There appears to be general agreement that in many countries the promise of a better standard of living which economic transition offers to the mass of the citizenry has failed to produce the rapid and dramatic results hoped for. There is an increasing conflict of interest between multinational firms and the national business community. Moreover, many transition economies have experienced a slowing of economic growth in real terms and social services have been severely cut.
