Product Description
"This book should be required discomfort for the Government's army of advisers, and is guaranteed to give sleepless nights to any potential regulator." -- Max Wilkinson, Financial Times
The
process of selling assests and enterprises to the private sector raises
questions about natural monopolies, the efficiency and equity of
state-owned versus privately owned enterprises, and industrial policy.
This comprehensive analysis of the British privatization program
explores these questions both theoretically and empirically.
