Book Description
Excerpt from Pressures for Reform in the East European Economies, Vol. 1: Study Papers Submitted to the Joint Economic Committee, Congress of the United States While East Europe's situation, taken in world context, is not the worst, it is still a difficult one fraught with economic and political uncertainties. The need for continued, and even greater, austerity in many of these countries in the remainder of this century will create increasing political tensions, which - given the increasingly hard Soviet stance - is quite likely to lead to social and political unrest in one or more countries in the region.

Economic Reforms in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe since the 1960s
Author: Jan AdamPublisher: Springer
ISBN: 1349197092
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 279
Book Description
The author discusses the traditional system of management of the economy as it existed in the early 1950s in the USSR and goes on to deal with the reforms of the 1960s and of the 1980s, country by country. He shows that the focus of the reforms is on finding a proper combination of planning and the market mechanism, and their success will be judged by their ability to solve acute economic problems.
Economic Adjustment and Reform in Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union
Author: Franklyn D. HolzmanPublisher: Duke University Press
ISBN: 9780822308522
Category : Business & Economics

Pages : 470
Book Description
Economic reform, structural adjustment, macroeconomic stabilization, and participation in the world economy are interconnected aspects of the same issue: the long-term economic viability of centrally planned economies in the rapidly changing economic environment of the modern world. Any economic strategy that focuses on only one or two of these aspects at the expense of the others is likely to fail; yet even strategies that build on all of these bases may well fail unless political leaders can muster exceptional skill, garner international support, and enjoy some good luck. The contributions to this volume reflect the recent research on this issue by various specialists on the economies of the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe. Each author emphasizes macroeconomic stabilization, structural adjustment, participation in the larger world economy, or ecomonic reform.
Stabilization and Reform in Eastern Europe
Author: Mr.Michael BrunoPublisher: International Monetary Fund
ISBN: 1451844859
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 44
Book Description
The paper analyzes common issues emerging from the recent experience with Fund-supported programs in Hungary, Poland, Czechoslovakia, Bulgaria and Romania. These comprise the initial price-overshooting and the output collapse, fiscal sustainability as well as the financial and structural problems associated with bad loan portfolios and sluggish implementation of privatization programs. Substantial success, in varying degrees, has been achieved in the initial macro-stabilization and opening-up effort. At the same time mounting difficulties with fiscal and monetary control may be emerging, as a result of social and political pressures and insufficiently clear policy signals on the micro-issues involving the sharp structural transformation of the productive and financial systems.
