Turkish agriculture has been experiencing a period of unique policy
experiment over the last couple years. A World Bank-initiated
project, called the Agricultural Reform Implementation Project
(ARIP), has been at the forefront of policy change. It was
initially promoted by the Bank as an exemplary reform package which
could also be adopted by other developing countries. It was
introduced in 2001 as part of a major International Monetary Fund
(IMF)/World Bank-imposed program of "structural adjustment" after
the country had been hit by a major financial crisis. The project
has finally come to an end in 2009, and there is now an urgent need
for a retrospective assessment of its overall impact on the
agricultural sector. Has it fulfilled its ambitious objective of
reforming and restructuring Turkish agriculture? Or should it be
recorded as a failure of the neo-liberal doctrine? This book aims
at finding answers to these questions by investigating the legacy
of ARIP from a multi-disciplinary perspective.
