Sommario/riassunto

This book examines the economic transformation of Turkey, a nation that has risen from bare subsistence in the early 1920's to a thriving market economy as it approaches its EU destination. It reviews the liberal period of the 1920's, highlights Turkey’s inward-looking economic and policy environments that prevailed for more than four decades, and provides an in-depth look at the stabilization and restructuring efforts since the 1980's, focusing on the legislative and political reforms implemented to comply with the terms of entry into the EU. This is a timely title that will be of great interest to policy



makers, academics, and the general public, and is a valuable reference for students and scholars of international economics, macroeconomics, and public policy.
