Can any one tell me examples of successful structural adjustment as a
result of harsh measures prescribed by the World Bank and IMF? Was
economic devastation and failure in countries like the Philippines
(before 1993, to the least) and mMexico largely due to the
prior-adjustment heavy indebtedness? I'm asking these because I want
to see the impact of liberalisation on small, weak economies. Sorry if
my questions sound naive, as I started reading into IPE question not
long time ago, also I just have about 5-6 week experience with the
net.
