Preface - rethinking structural reform in Latin America
本文是2003年亚特兰大联邦储备银行与美洲开发银行合办会议的会议前言，总结了会议中关于拉丁美洲结构性改革对经济增长和收入分配影响的演讲与论文。
The process of structural reform in Latin America has thus far been uneven, and various economic crises have raised doubts about reforms’ effectiveness and have caused public support for further reforms to wane. To promote and highlight research exploring structural reform’s impact on economic growth and income distribution in Latin America, the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta and the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) cosponsored the conference “Rethinking Structural Reform in Latin America” in October 2003. ; This issue of the Economic Review contains four articles that were among the papers presented at the conference. The preface summarizes the conference speeches, papers, and discussant comments.
