Product Description

Addressing the unique regulatory needs of developing countries and the observation that mere adoption of regulatory laws is a necessary—but not sufficient—condition for changes in economic outcomes, this detailed tome provides a look at the reasons why certain regulatory objectives and provisions fail to work when put into practice. Written by leading experts, this account includes the detailed and up-to-date global impressions of economic regulatory challenges and the political economy that can often frustrate the successful implementation of regulatory laws.
