Sprache: Deutsch fester Pappband 8;; 364 Seiten; Bibliotheksstempel auf Rückseite Haupttitel; University of Glasgow Social and Economic Studies Band 9; Vorwort von Professor Edward S. Mason - THIS study was originally intended to be an inquiry info the relative merits of different policies für dealing with the effects of export fluctuations on underdeveloped countries. But as I read more and more of the literature, I became increasingly aware of the lack of systematic empirical analyses of the causes and consequences of export fluctuations. The literature was fun of assertions on these subjects but little or no evidence. As a result I became increasingly interested in this aspect, for it seemed to me that the design of appropriate policies required a reasonably accurate diagnosis of the causes and effects of the ailment. I began the search reasonably confident that I should in fact find the general views expressed in the literature to be upheld by the evidence; but the more evidence I examined, the less confident of this I became. Thus the study which I began mainly as a discussion of policy now lays equal emphasis on statistical analyses of theories about export instability, and the policy recommendations that follow from the analyses - - -.
