- catalog abstract "Annotation Economic Lessons from the Transition focuses on major transitions in the 1990s: the transition from central planning and communism to market capitalism and the global integration of national financial systems. The book suggests answers to the following questions: How should basic economic theory as taught in introductory economics courses be revised in light of the failure of market-oriented economics to effect a successful transition in so many former communist economies? Could the theory be revised and presented in a different manner? How can basic economic theory be used to help explain the past failures in understanding transition problems and to avoid future mistakes? This volume is a "must read" for all who teach economics or apply economics to the real world. The lessons in each chapter build to an understanding of markets and market systems very different from that in standard introductory texts. Annotation Selected Contents: 1. The Basic Market Mechanism2. Firms and the Markets They Operate In3. The Factors of Production4. The Role of Government5. Measuring Economic Activity: The Key to Understanding6. Macroeconomics7. Monetary Policy and Its Prerequisites8. Foreign Exchange Rates and Exchange Rate Crises9. Transition in the Context of the International Financial System10. The Consequences for Open-Economy Macroeconomics11. Benevolent and Malevolent Markets12. Japan: The First Demographic Transition13. Conclusion.".
