Editorial Reviews

Booknews
Ukrainian politicians and economists and western and Polish scholars criticize the gradualist approach to economic change adopted by the government, charging that it has produced no better results than the shock-treatment approach used in Russia. The 13 reports are from the June 1996 conference The State of Economic Reforms in Ukraine, held in Kyiv (apparently spelling reform is taking hold) and sponsored by the Ukrainian government and several international development organizations. They cover the strategy of reform, macroeconomic stabilization, fiscal policy, energy as a case study of structural reform, privatization and the legal system, and social policy. Annotation c.
