Download or read book Czech Republic written by International Monetary Fund and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 1997-01-23 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper describes economic developments in the Czech Republic during 1990–95. In 1991–93, quick progress was made in containing inflation, rebuilding foreign reserves, and restoring confidence in economic policies; and this was followed by resumption of growth in 1994. Financial and political stability and continued progress toward a market economy attracted large capital inflows in 1993–95. In spite of attempts to sterilize these inflows, monetary growth was rapid and fueled a boom in domestic demand, which in turn widened the current account deficit and maintained inflation at relatively high levels.
Download or read book From Central Planning to the Market written by Libor Žídek and published by Central European University Press. This book was released on 2017-11-10 with total page 520 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes the process of the Czech economic transformation from the beginning of the 1990s to the country's entry into the European Union in 2004. This transformation is divided into four periods: an initial recession caused by the transformation; economic growth in the mid-1990s; a recession connected to the currency crisis of 1997; and recovery and growth from 1999 until 2004, when the analysis ends. The examination covers the main aspects of the transformation – an overall view of the process, political transition, economic policy, economic results (GDP development, inflation, unemployment), changes in outside indicators (balance of payments), privatization, transformation of the financial sector, and changes in the business sector and institutional development. The book also compares Czech development in this transformative era to those of Poland and Hungary. As in Hungary and Poland, the Czech Republic underwent an exceptional qualitative shift from a system centrally planned to one that was market-based. The book concludes that despite mistakes and hardships, the overall transformation process in Central Europe has been successful.
Download or read book The Czech and Slovak Federal Republic written by International Monetary Fund and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 1990-10-31 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper is based on an internal report prepared by the IMF staff in connection with the application of the Czech and Slovak Federal Republic (Czechoslovakia) for membership in the IMF. The paper surveys the economic system that had developed up to the time of the reforms begun in 1987 and outlines the economy's performance during 1945–1985. It then discusses the economic developments of 1985–1990, with separate sections on output, prices, public finance, money, and the balance of payments. Prices served mainly as an instrument of central planning: each price was set independently and a change in one price had no influence on other prices. The annual foreign exchange plan, derived from the state plan, strictly controlled foreign exchange transactions. It specified imports and exports of goods and services by enterprises for the convertible and nonconvertible area. The exact modalities of the denationalization scheme have not yet been determined. However, consideration is being given to a scheme whereby state enterprises would be transformed into joint stock companies, and “ownership vouchers” would be distributed to the population which would entitle their holders to purchase stock in these companies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 2010 Article IV Consultation discusses Czech Republic’s economic condition. The Czech economy’s fundamentals were strong prior to the global economic and financial crisis. However, owing to its highly open nature, the economy was hit by spillover effects. A downturn in the euro area depressed exports while investment declined owing to a drop in FDI and the tightening of banks’ lending standards. Monetary and fiscal easing provided helpful stimulus, thereby cushioning the economic downturn.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Situated in the turbulent heart of Europe, the Czech Republic has suffered from significant discontinuity in its historical development, but its economic thinking has not until now been subject to a full analysis. This book offers a history of Czech economic thought from the late Middle Ages to the present day. It traces methodological developments and the relationship between economics and politics, and introduces not just pioneering figures in the field but also those whose lives and careers were thwarted by history, as well as Czech exile thinkers. Identifying key themes in Czech economic thought, the volume considers which branches of economic theory have had the greatest influence on Czech thought, and explores the relationship between Czech economic thinking and wider established schools of thought. This book will benefit students and researchers of history of economic thought, economic history, economic theory, and political economy, as well as those with a specific interest in the Czech Republic.

Download or read book Czech Republic written by and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 1999-01-01 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "At the end of 1995, the Czech Republic was regarded as the clearest success story in the region. It had one of the lowest rates of inflation and the lowest rates of unemployment. The high GDP growth rate looked sustainable, as it was accompanied by a moderate current account deficit, balanced fiscal account and seemed to be underpinned by important structural reform." The Czech Republic was perceived until 1996 as the most successful transition economy in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE). The Czech Republic seems to be the clearest success story in the region. However, the Czech miracle came to a halt in May 1997. Its future economic development and successful integration into the European Union (EU) depends critically on its capacity to recover a sustainable output growth path. To assist the country in achieving its primary goal to join the European Union (EU) in the shortest period of time, this report analyzes economic developments in the Czech Republic since 1997. It focuses on assessing the status of the Czech Republic's economy from the perspective of its pursuit for EU membership. The report is composed of two volumes. The first volume is the summary report that condenses main findings and conclusions. The second volume is the main report. It provides the assessment and technical study of selected key sectors of the Czech economy. The EU accession process dominates the sector analyses, which are outlined in each chapter.
Download or read book Current Economics and Politics of ex Czechoslovakia written by Jiří Křovák and published by Nova Biomedical Books. This book was released on 1994 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Czechoslovakia, at the strategic center of Europe's heartland, first underwent the famous 'velvet' revolution and subsequently split into two. Its eventual destiny is probably a leading indicator of the direction the 21st century will take. If the post-Cold War era has even the slightest chance to bring with it the lasting peace which so completely evaded the 20th century, the countries of the former Eastern Europe must become full and equal partners with the former Western Countries. Yet, the former Western countries have been generally less than enthusiastic about this idea so far. Current Economics and Politics of (ex-) Czechoslovakia details the crunching economic and political forces exploding in the center of Europe. The contributors present in-depth analyses which constitute essential reading.

Download or read book Supply Shock written by Brian Czech and published by New Society Publishers. This book was released on 2013-04-26 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Politicians, economists, and Wall Street would have us believe that limitless economic expansion is the Holy Grail, and that there is no conflict between growing the economy and protecting the environment. Supply Shock debunks these widely accepted myths and demonstrates that we are in fact navigating the end of the era of economic growth, and that the only sustainable alternative is the development of a steady state economy. Starting with a refreshingly accessible, comprehensive critique of economic growth, the author engages readers in an enormous topic that affects everyone in every country. Publisher's Weekly favorably compared Czech to Carl Sagan for popularizing their difficult subjects; Supply Shock shows why. Czech presents a compelling alternative to growth based on keen scientific, economic, and political insights including: The "trophic theory of money" The overlooked source of technological progress that prevents us from reconciling growth and environmental protection Bold yet practical policies for establishing a steady state economy. Supply Shock leaves no doubt that the biggest idea of the 20th century – economic growth – has become the biggest problem of the 21st. Required reading for anyone concerned about the world our children and grandchildren will inherit, this landmark work lays a solid foundation for a new economic model, perhaps in time for preventing global catastrophes; certainly in time for lessening the damages.
