Description: The post-communist European countries have faced enormous political and economic problems in attempting the transformation to a market oriented economy through two of the most important channels influencing this process--privatization and foreign investments. Focusing on Russia, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Bulgaria, and Poland, the authors examine the trends toward privatization and the problems facing the countries economic managers and foreign investors. They explore what can be done to increase foreign direct and equity investment given the political risks involved in the economic transformation. Scholars and students of international economics, international trade, Russian and Eastern European studies, and government and international agencies should find this study on the relationship between privatization and foreign investment informative and useful.

Description: One of the most important subjects on political and academic agendas in the 1980s and 1990s has been the privatization of public enterprises. Privatization has been examined extensively, but most studies focus on its theoretical aspects, on comparative analyses of the formulas used in other countries, or on descriptive accounts of the sales process. Only rarely has an author who played a leading role in privatization compiled a written record that not only describes experiences, but also analyzes the theoretical aspects and discusses the reasons for and the effects of the process itself, as is the case in this book.

A constant of any discussion on privatization as a tool of economic policy is the debate on whether its political and social costs are too high. Jacques Rogozinski begins by stating that in Mexico's case, the government was on the verge of bankruptcy, the economic model of state intervention was already exhausted, and the country's potential growth was stunted. Delaying the privatization process, according to the author, would have cost the Mexican people far more in the long run.

"This important and thoughtful work," writes Pedro Aspe, former Minister of Finance in Mexico, "sheds light on the reasons for Mexico4s privativation of public enterprises, as well as the benefits to be derived from this far-reaching program, which has always aimed to lay the foundation for the country4s modernization and economic development. As a major contribution to the research on privatization, the book should be consulted and carefully analyzed by the public in general."
