This volume is a synthesis of research on the relationship between private investment, adjustment and growth . The book reviews empirical evidence on the response of private capital formation to stabilization, adjustment and reform policies; it also deals with issues of irreversibility, uncertainty, and the dynamics of aggregate investment. Empirical studies of determinants of investment include countries of Latin America and East Asia. Policy lessons are highlighted to speed the response of capital formation and growth after adjustment in developing countries.
