Privatisation programmes are being widely touted as the solution to many of the problems of inefficiency and slow rates of growth associated with public enterprise. This book discusses the underlying causes of those problems, and critically examines some of the solutions that have been adopted. Its geographical coverage is wide and it cuts across the political spectrum. The experiences of countries in four continents are analysed in an attempt to shed light on current dilemmas. Recurrent patterns are found; problems are frequently seen 606 $aGovernment business enterprises$zDeveloping countries 606 $aPrivatization$zDeveloping countries 615 0$aGovernment business enterprises 615 0$aPrivatization 676 $a338.6/2/091724 676 $a338.62091724 701 $aRamanadham$b V.
