After the Washington Consensus: Restarting Growth and Reform in Latin America

After the Washington Consensus: Restarting Growth and Reform in Latin America

Pedro-Pablo Kuczynski
0/5 ( ratings)
This volume is a successor of sorts to the Institute's 1986 volume Toward Renewed Economic Growth in Latin America, which blazed the trail for the market-oriented economic reforms that were adopted in Latin America in the subsequent years. It again presents the work of a group of leading Latin American economists who were asked to think about the nature of the economic policy agenda that the region should be pursuing after a decade that was punctuated by crises, achieved disappointingly slow growth, and saw no improvement in the region's highly skewed income distribution. The study diagnoses the first-generation reforms that are still lacking, the complementary second-generation reforms that are necessary to provide the institutional infrastructure of a market economy with an egalitarian bias, and the new initiatives that are needed to crisis-proof the economies of the region to end its perpetual series of crises.

Contributors: Daniel Artana, Nancy Birdsall, Roberto Bouzas, Sa�l Keifman, Pedro-Pablo Kuczynski, Ricardo L�pez Murphy, Claudio de Moura Castro, Fernando Navajas, Patricio Navia, Liliana Rojas-Suarez, Jaime Saavedra, Miguel Sz�kely, Andr�s Velasco, John Williamson, and Laurence Wolff.
