Description

Reorientation from economic controls to a market-based approach led to significant changes in the economic policy of developing countries in the 1980s. Yet, with governments continuing to exercise economic management to accelerate growth beyond that achieved by market forces, techniques and models of development planning are still an integral feature of development policy management. Development Policy and Planning provides a non-technical explanation of the main techniques and models used for economic policy formulation. Each technique is illustrated in application through practical examples.

Table of Contents

Preface 1. Development Policy Analysis and Quantitative Planning Methods 2. Aggregate Consistency Methods 3. Disaggregated Consistency Methods 4. Multi-Sectoral Models and Social Accounting Matrix 5. Programming Approach and Planning 6. Computable General Equilibrium Models 7. Cost-Benefit Analysis
