Description

Since the birth of Bangladesh in December 1971, successive governments have adopted the orthodox economic policies advocated by aid donors and international agencies; they have in particular carried out a "green revolution", raised interest rates, devalued the currency, privatized state firms and maintained a small public sector. But, this book shows that poverty and inequality have increased, largely because governments lacked stability and authority.

Table of Contents

  • Growth and structural change
  • agricultural development
  • industrialization
  • trade, public finance and prices - some issues
  • the development of infrastructure
  • income distribution and poverty.
