The Bank's Use of Technical Assistance for Institutional Development
Whenever the Bank identifies shortcomings in institutional capability, technical assistance is automatically assumed to be the appropriate response. But technical assistance has, and will continue to have limitations - and there are alternatives.

Whither Hungary and the European Communities?
Hungary stands to gain considerably from an improvement in its standing in the EC pyramid of privileges. Membership in the EC could lead to an expansion of Hungarian exports to the Community of some 48 percent, with the main gains in meats, iron and steel, fruit and vegetables, textiles, and clothing.
Public Policies and Saving in Developing Countries
Developing countries can increase their national saving rate best by increasing government saving. The most effective way to increase national saving is through permanent tax hike, a cut in current public spending, and a macroeconomic framework in which inflation is low and incentives are predictable.
Theatre of the Rule of Law
Theatre of the Rule of Law presents a sustained critique of global rule of law promotion - an expansive industry at the heart of international development, post-conflict reconstruction and security policy today. While successful in articulating and disseminating an effective global public policy, rule of law promotion has largely failed in its stated objectives of raising countries out of poverty and taming violent conflict. Furthermore, in its execution, this work deviates sharply from 'the rule of law' as commonly conceived. To explain this, Stephen Humphreys draws on the history of the rule of law as a concept, examples of legal export during colonial times, and a spectrum of contemporary interventions by development agencies and international organisations. Rule of law promotion is shown to be a kind of theatre, the staging of a morality tale about the good life, intended for edification and emulation, but blind to its own internal contradictions.
Africa's Rising Inflation
Is there a link between devaluation and high inflation? It depends on accompanying monetary and fiscal policies and the presence of parallel markets. An open capital account would curtail fiscal profligacy and provide price stability without jeopardizing growth.
The Domestic Financial Market and the Trade Liberalization Outcome
The main finding of the study is the domestic financial market plays a very significant role in the success or failure of trade liberalization. This was found to be the case in Sri Lanka during 1977-87.
