Wolf.By many measures, the German Democratic Republic (GDR) had the strongest economy in the Eastern bloc and was one of the most important industrial nations worldwide. Nonetheless, the economic history of the GDR has been primarily discussed as a failure when compared with the economic success of the Federal Republic and is often cited as one of the pre-eminent examples of central planning's deficiencies. This volume analyzes both the successes and failures of the East German economy. The contributors consider the economic history of East Germany within its broader political, cultural and social contexts. Rather than limit their perspective to the period of the GDR's existence, the essays additionally consider the decades before 1945 and the post-1990 era. Contributors also trace the present and future of the East German economy and suggest possible outcomes.Publications of the German Historical Institute.Germany (East)Economic conditions1945-1990Germany (East)Economic conditions1990-Germany (East)Economic policy330.943/1087HIS010000bisacshBerghoff HartmutBalbier Uta A.UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910787768903321The East German economy, 1945-20103677386UNINA02795oam 22006375 450 991079050100332120200520144314.01-280-78302-897866136934190-8213-9528-910.1596/978-0-8213-9527-1(CKB)2670000000208223(EBL)943512(OCoLC)796384760(SSID)ssj0000677743(PQKBManifestationID)11437056(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000677743(PQKBWorkID)10696655(PQKB)10578840(MiAaPQ)EBC943512(Au-PeEL)EBL943512(CaPaEBR)ebr10571264(CaONFJC)MIL369341(The World Bank)17202489(US-djbf)17202489(EXLCZ)99267000000020822320120309d2012 uf 0engurcn|||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierGreen infrastructure finance : framework report /Roberto La RoccaWashington, D.C. :World Bank,2012.pages cmWorld Bank studyDescription based upon print version of record.0-8213-9527-0 Includes bibliographical references and index.Rationale for green infrastructure finance framework -- Economic rationale of green investments -- Conceptual methodology for assessing and allocating risks -- Assessment of green investment climate in eap countries -- Conclusion and next steps -- Annex 1: Green investment climate matrix -- Annex 2: Bibliography.This report builds on the conclusions of the Green Infrastructure Finance: Leading Initiatives and Research report and lays out a simple and elegant way in which scarce public financing can leverage market interest in 'greening' infrastructure, particularly in the East Asia and Pacific Region. The framework introduced in the report bridges ideas and concepts between environmental economics and project finance practices and consists largely of an analytical methodology for determining the financial viability gap of low-emission projects and an approach for assessing and strengthening the greenWorld Bank e-Library.Infrastructure (Economics)Sustainable developmentFinanceInfrastructure (Economics)Sustainable developmentFinance.332.67/22La Rocca Roberto1466965Baietti Aldo1466966World Bank.DLCDLCBOOK9910790501003321Green infrastructure finance3677594UNINA
