Author Description

"This is a collective effort of Burmese economists living both inside and outside the country who have come together to offer a long-term vision for the economic development of Burma." "Bringing together their own intimate knowledge of the country's problems and the possibilities that lie ahead, the scholars - most whom are widely travelled and have achieved professional eminence as development specialists in leading universities of the world - attempt to analyse the economic growth in the second half of the twentieth century, and to suggest strategies for the development of the country in the coming century."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
