It was also a time of considerable reforms that strengthened the policy framework in a large number of countries. Yet the resulting growth experiences of developing countries have been extremely varied and often below expectations. What have we learned from this experience? And how can these lessons be applied to the challenges we face in the new millennium?; This book brings together the insights and experiences of some of the world's leading policymakers and global thought leaders, individuals who have had substantial influence on the policy reforms and development strategies in their native countries. Sharing their unique perspectives, these "practitioners of development" explain the reasons for the uneven outcomes of the 1990s and, with the benefit of hindsight, draw relevant lessons for the future.; Essays by leading global economists cover a wide range of topics, from the Washington Consensus as a policy prescription for development to the successes and failures of post-Communist transition countries. Those interested in economics, political science, and international studies will find much to think about in this challenging collection. 410 0$aWorld Bank e-Library. 607 $aDeveloping countries$xEconomic policy 607 $aDeveloping countries$xPolitics and government 676 $a338.9/009172/4 701 $aBesley$b Timothy$0119796 701 $aZagha$b Roberto$01867998 712 02$aWorld Bank.$bOperations Evaluation Department. 801 0$bDLC 801 1$bDLC 801 2$bDLC 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910967161303321 996 $aDevelopment challenges in the 1990s$94475792 997 $aUNINA LEADER 05698nam 2200793Ia 450 001 9910959396803321 005 20251116231617.0 010 $a9786611951627 010 $a9781281951625 010 $a1281951625 010 $a9789812810083 010 $a9812810080 035 $a(CKB)1000000000538024 035 $a(EBL)1679784 035 $a(OCoLC)879024005 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000297133 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11226230 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000297133 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10333381 035 $a(PQKB)10412989 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC1679784 035 $a(WSP)00004696 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL1679784 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10255840 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL195162 035 $a(Perlego)850303 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000538024 100 $a20010910d2001 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aInternational Workshop on Fusion Dynamics at the Extremes $eDubna, Russia, 25-27 May 2000 /$feditors, Yu.

It contains the latest experimental results on the formation and fission of superheavy nuclei and on the near-barrier fusion of light exotic nuclei, along with the different theoretical approaches to the description of fusion dynamics and microscopic properties of superheavy nuclei. The book also discusses nuclear collective dynamics and expectations from the use of accelerated beams of radioactive nuclei in fusion reactions.
