It is widely felt that the public sector in many developing
countries is too large, and that privatisation would benefit both
the users of individual services and the economy in general.
However, enthusiasm for private enterprise solutions is not always
matched by the requisite financial and economic technology. The
sort of schemes appropriate for a country like China, with its
highly planned public sector economy, and Jordan, with its dominant
private sector, are unlikely to be the same. Privatisation without
reference to these differences will be an economic, administrative
and organisational chaos rather than a panacea. Originally
published in 1989, this book starts with an analysis on the
concept, rationale and fundamental issues of privatisation, with
reference to both developed and developing countries. There follows
a critical scrutiny of the privatisation programmes of countries in
Asia, Africa and Latin America, written by contributors actively
concerned with public enterprise and privatisation at the time. It
examines the role of international aid agencies, including the
World Bank, in promoting the schemes and it details the positive
impact of them as well as their pitfalls. These country accounts
are complemented by a concluding chapter giving an overview of the
substantial issues raised.
