Opis

This book studies economic development in two of the world's fastest growing developing countries, Tanzania and Vietnam, by examining the interplay between market liberalization, institutions, and the distribution of power in society.

Recenzje

This impressive and innovative book uses a political settlements framework to shed light on the very different trajectories of two socialist developing countries transitioning to 'market economies.' Its analysis of the relationships between institutions, ideologies, productive capabilities and organizational structures provides many important insights on the political economy of growth and governance.
