    Book Description

    Now in its twelfth annual edition, the World Development Report is an essential reference on the world economy and the state of social and economic development. Like earlier editions, the 1989 Report incorporates research from all over the world, analyzing the conditions that surround the growth process and offering insights on appropriate policy measures for the future. Focusing on the decline of foreign investment since the early 1980s, and showing how Third World nations have been left more than ever to rely on their own resources for continuing development, the 1989 Report analyzes the roots of financial-sector weakness in the Third World and discusses methods for strengthening domestic financial systems so that they may better perform their growth-facilitating role. With its timely survey and synthesis of contemporary economic issues around the world, the World Development Report is invaluable in a variety of courses, particularly those in economic development, international economics, and international politics.

        From the supplier: An overview of the World Development Report 1989 reveals that the report analyzes the lessons to be learned from the economic and fiscal histories of both developed and lesser developed countries (LDCs). The report identifies measures that promote the development of efficient financial systems, which are the cornerstone of voluntary, market-based decision-making. A stable financial system can be achieved through: restructuring legal, accounting, and regulatory systems; requiring full financial disclosure and defining and enforcing lender's rights; and instituting tax policies equitable to financial institutions. Future economic growth is dependent on fiscal policies, which must concentrate on fiscal balance, trade reform, and domestic savings and investments. Financial liberalization must be concurrent with macroeconomic reforms in order to succeed.

          From the supplier: The World Development Report 1989 elucidates the causes, consequences and cures for bank problems in less developed countries (LDCs). Weak financial institutions are the result of: macroeconomic conditions; industrial and financial policy; and debtor and creditor behavior. The consequence of bank problems is an inefficient allocation of resources, resulting in: an inability to provide services; inhibited investment and production; and undermined macroeconomic stability. Economic recovery is dependent on restructuring financial institutions and instituting fiscal policies that promote voluntarism in mobilizing and allocating resources. Case-by-case intervention is the most efficient way to restructure ailing banks and entails decisions on: allocating losses; shifting the costs of asset replacement away from the central bank; and restructuring indebted borrowers.
