Description

This volume is a successor of sorts to the Institute's 1986 volume "Toward Renewed Economic Growth In Latin America". It again presents the work of a group of leading Latin American economists who were asked to think about the nature of the economic policy agenda that the region should be pursuing after the better part of a decade that was punctuated by crises, achieved disappointingly slow growth, and saw no improvement in the region's highly skewed income distribution. It diagnoses the first-generation (liberalizing and stabilizing) reforms that are still lacking, the complementary second-generation (institutional) reforms that are necessary to provide the institutional infra-structure of a market economy with an egalitarian basis, and the new initiatives that are needed to crisis-proof the economies of the region to end its perpetual series of crises.

Author Biography:

He also served as adviser to the International Monetary Fund (1972-74); and Economic Consultant to the UK Treasury (1968-70), and Chief Economist for the South Asia Region of the World Bank (1996-99). He has published numerous studies on international monetary and developing world debt issues, including Exchange Rate Regimes for Emerging Markets: Reviving the Intermediate Option (2000), The Crawling Band as an Exchange Rate Regime (1996), What Role for Currency Boards?
