Taylor, Lance
(ed., 2005) External Liberalization In Asia, Post-Socialist Europe,
and Brazil,
New York: Oxford University Press
This volume
is about the experiences of 14 countries with external liberalization
and related policies, based on papers written by national authors
following a common methodology. The focus is on transition and Asian
economies, with Brazil as an illuminating comparator. The authors
provide "thick descriptions" à la Geertz's (1973) famous Balinese
cockfight about how diverse economies responded to rather similar
"reform" packages and offer lessons about ongoing institutional
change. They also suggest policy shifts that may help make economic
performance better in the future than it has been in the past.
