Book excerpt: The starting point of Paul Streeten's book is the dilemma, faced by policy makers in many developing countries: should the price of food be high, in order to stimulate production, or low, in order to prevent poor food buyers from starving? The author goes on to discuss the role of prices in the light of these and other objectives. 'It is the work of one of our wisest scholars on what I consider to be the key policy issue for economic development in the 1980s...this provocative essay will be required reading for anyone working on agricultural price policy.' C.Peter Timmer 'It provides solid and practical guidance to scholars and decision-makers. It is lucid, balanced and, above all, useful.' Robert Klitgaard 'Paul Streeten is well known for his gift of explaining the pros and cons of difficult policy issues in a clear, simple and realistic way, appealing to policy-makers, students and the wider development community, as well as to academic colleagues.

Download or read book Pricing Policy for Development Management written by Gerald M. Meier and published by Johns Hopkins University Press. This book was released on 1983 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many economists believe that a major task of development policy is to get prices right. Policy prescriptions frequently emphasize the need for more appropriate pricing systems or a sensible pricing system. But how does one know when prices are right, appropriate, or sensible? What exactly are the policy instruments that policymakers can use to get prices right? This book explores these questions. To indicate how the principles of pricing might be applied to these various problems, the discussion is structured in the following sections. "Elements of a Price System, " explains the components of a price system and relates them to the logic of optimization in a choice problem. "Functions of Prices, " distinguishes the various functions performed by prices and illustrates some consequences of pricing policies. "Properties of Efficiency, " presents an ideal reference model of an efficient economy, so that actual cases of market failure can be compared with the optimal. It also examines how deviations from the ideal market arise and what remedial policies are possible to correct the distortions. "Public Pricing Policy, " outlines contending principles of ideal pricing and considers applications to a range of public services. "Prices, Markets, and Development, " acts as a summary and places the techniques of project appraisal in the wider context of price analysis and investment policy.
