Download or read book The Transition in Eastern Europe Volume 2 written by Olivier Jean Blanchard and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2007-12-01 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When communism fell in 1989, the question for most Eastern European countries was not whether to go to a market economy, but how to get there. Several years later, the difficult process of privatization and restructuring continues to concern the countries of the region. The Transition in Eastern Europe, Volumes 1 and 2 is an analysis of the experiences of various countries making the transition to market economies and examines the most important challenges still in store. Volume 1, Country Studies, gives an in-depth, country-by-country analysis of various reform experiences, including historical backgrounds and discussions of policies and results to date. The countries analyzed are Poland, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, eastern Germany, Slovenia, and Russia. Written by leading economists, some of whom helped shape local and national reforms, this volume identifies common progress, common difficulties, and tentative solutions to the problems of economic transition. Volume 2, Restructuring, focuses on specific issues of transition, including how to design labor market institutions, privatization, new fiscal structures, and bankruptcy laws; how to reorganize foreign trade; and how to promote foreign direct investment. The articles, written by experts in the field, will be of direct help to those involved in the transition process. These volumes provide a standard reference on economic transition in the region for policymakers in Eastern Europe and in western countries, for international agencies concerned with the transition process, and for anyone interested in learning about the dramatic changes that have recently occurred in Eastern Europe.

Download or read book Privatizing Eastern Europe written by J.M. Van Brabant and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is meant to be a modest contribution to the ongoing debate about the transitions away from the administrative planning environment typical of the former communist regimes. The central subject matter is a fairly special one, namely the privatization of these economies together with the restoration and effective monitoring of property rights. These are paramount tasks of the ongoing transformations once progress toward pOlitical democracy is secured. Though I would not allot divestment of existing state-owned assets the kind of pivotal importance that some observers reserve for it, changing rules on the utilization of these assets is evidently at the core of what the transition toward market-based economic systems should be all about. Rather than examining the entire range of issues that surround the controvery on privatization, this volume is primarily concerned with the economics of taking the state out of the decision making about existing assets. Among the several aspects of this discussion three stand out. One is the establishment of clear property rights. This is fundamental to minimize trans action costs in an environment where decisions will increasingly be taken by independent economic agents acting on their own account. Second, I look only incidentally at the various angles of creating capital markets, particularly for existing assets, in these economies.

This book was released on 2014-07-29 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2013 in the subject Economics - Other, grade: 1,0, University of Wrocław (Master of Managerial Economics), course: Economic Policy, language: English, abstract: For an appropriate comprehension and consequently treatise of the German ‘Treuhandanstalt’ (THA) or shortened ‘Treuhand’, trust agency as literal translation and privatization agency as analogous translation, it is absolutely necessary to keep in mind the history and context. “It would be hard to devise a better controlled experiment for comparing different economic systems than the experience provided by East Germany and West Germany: two nations that formerly were one, occupied by people of the same background, the same culture, and the same genetic inheritance, torn apart by the accident of war. On one side of the Berlin Wall is a relatively free economic system; on the other side, a collectivist society” (Milton Friedman 1986, cited in Collier/Siebert 1991: 196). Milton Friedman was assuredly surprised when his ideal field for experimentation of comparing ran in another direction three years later. As commonly known, the mentioned Berlin Wall fell on 9 November 1989 and became the starting point of a never seen before transformation of the German Democratic Republic (GDR) according to his geographical and geostrategic position also known as East Germany. Nevertheless the statement of the recipient of the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences and in general one of the most famous economists of the 20th century remains unaffected. The origin of the so-called ‘German reunification’ or ‘the turning point’ is unique; the still special circumstances liberated by the fall of the Berlin Wall, which only formed part of a series of the demolishing Iron Curtain, led to incomparable possibilities regarding transformations in many countries in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE). The formal political accession, occurred on the 3rd October 1990, is a quite famous date and its anniversary is nowadays the national day, the ‘day of German unity’. The Federal Republic of Germany (FRG), previously known as West Germany, from this day forth consisted of sixteen federal states, eleven old and five new ones. But another, earlier aspect of the reunification is not so well known: the bilateral state treaty about the creation of a monetary, economic and social union (MESU) of 18 May 1990, that came into effect on 1 July 1990. This was the comprehensive economic integration of the command economy GDR in the capitalistic, more precisely social market economy, FRG.
Download or read book Privatization in Eastern Europe written by Iván Major and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 1993 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The task of turning the state-owned assets of the Eastern European countries over to private ownership is one of the most challenging of our time, both intellectually and in practical terms. Ivan Major's in-depth critique of the plans and programmes of the East European governments addresses the core issues of privatization from the perspective of both potential winners and losers. After discussing the analytical framework, he offers an assessment of the legacy of the command economy and includes individual country studies of Czechoslovakia, the former GDR, Hungary, Poland and the former Soviet Union. The following chapters look at the theoretical, political and economic underpinning as well as assessments of the initial results of East European privatizations. Dr Major argues that the whole network of political regulation must be dismantled if an efficient market economy is to emerge. Privatization in Eastern Europe offers a critical analysis of the movement towards privatization in Eastern Europe as well as an authoritative assessment of the existing literature. This book will be welcomed by scholars and policymakers as an important source of analysis, argument and information.
