Little of this international attention has considered the broad range of development challenges facing this diverse group of countries. Breaking the Barriers reflects the collected thinking of the World Bank's Office of the Chief Economist for the MENA Region on the long-term development challenges facing the region and the reform priorities and strategies for effectively meeting these challenges. 410 0$aWorld Bank e-Library. 606 $aEconomic development$xPolitical aspects$zMiddle East 606 $aEconomic development$xPolitical aspects$zAfrica, North 606 $aMacroeconomics 607 $aMiddle East$xEconomic conditions 607 $aAfrica, North$xEconomic conditions 607 $aMiddle East$xEconomic policy 607 $aAfrica, North$xEconomic policy 615 0$aEconomic development$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aEconomic development$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aMacroeconomics. 676 $a338.956 700 $aNabli$b Mustapha K$0122537 801 0$bDLC 801 1$bDLC 801 2$bBTCTA 801 2$bBAKER 801 2$bYDXCP 801 2$bC#P 801 2$bCDX 801 2$bBWX 801 2$bDLC 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910782296403321 996 $aBreaking the barriers to higher economic growth$93817609 997 $aUNINA
