Overview

In this two-volume set, 45 contributions (dating from 1983 to 1998) focus on the public policy of privatization, a phenomenon triggered by many factors such as technological change, ideological and political considerations and budgetary pressures, and changes in the economic and political regimes. Volume I discusses methods, techniques and types of privatization; reasons and rationalizations (efficiency and development of the economy and enterprise, budgetary and financial improvements, income distribution or redistribution, and political considerations); and the political dimension. Volume II covers the impact of privatization, i.e. the redrawing of the public-private boundary, consequences of efficiency, effects on corporate governance, and political implications. Lacks a subject index. Edited by Wright (formerly Nuffield College, U. of Oxford, U.K.) and Perrotti (political science, INSEAD, France). Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
