ISBN: 9780792392255 / Angielski / Twarda / 294 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This study has been long in the making, and the world has changed dramatically while we have been at work. We initially anticipated a substantial section on the Soviet-dominated Council for Mutual Economic Assistance (CMEA or "COMECON"), which offered an interesting contrast to the kind of international business regime typically found among market-oriented countries and industries. As we moved toward publi- tion, the CMEA vanished, and so we mention it only in passing. The USSR subsequently disintegrated into a Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS). On the other hand, we began with the...

An attentive reader embarking on this book might wonder what "the" economic transition to which the title refers might be.

Research stressing the former approach was pioneered by Krugman (1979) and Flood and Garber (1984). According to this line of research, the failure of governments to adopt domestic monetary and fiscal policies consistent with their stated exchange rate targets leads to a gradual diminution of reserves and eventually a stock adjustment that depletes reserves suddenly in one attack (Sachs, Tornell, and Velasco, 1996, page 47). The result is either a devaluation of the exchange rate or a switch to floating. Subsequent work of this genre...

In a little over one decade, the spread of market-oriented policies has turned the once so-called lesser developed countries into emerging markets. Many forces have been responsible for the tremendous growth in emerging markets.

Corporate restructuring, following the debt crisis of the early 1980's has permitted many emerging market companies to gain international competitiveness. And an essential condition, a basic...

The logic of the offshore world, where millionaires and corporations roam in search of financial advantage, is slippery. It challenges many conventional assumptions about power and economics.In the single most comprehensive account...

Lincoln, a highly regarded economist, contends that the best chance the United States has of ensuring peace and prosperity for...

Vogel's discussion of deregulation in Japan offers the reader an understanding of the distinct issues of market liberalization and regulatory reform as they have been pursued in Japan, and also offers an analysis of the relationship between state and market in contemporary Japan. In the face of the growing acceptance of the claim that international market forces have been compelling reluctant governments to deregulate, liberalize and privatize more segments of their economies, Steven Vogel presents a political challenge to what he regards as these oversimplifications.
