    Abstract: Global Development Finance was formerly published as World Debt Tables. The new name reflects the report's expanded scope and greater coverage of private financial flows. The report consists of two volumes:a) Analysis and Summary Tables contains analysis and commentary on recent developments in international finance for developing countries, with particular focus on the global financial crisis. Summary statistical tables are included for 150 countries. b) Country Tables contains statistical tables on the external debt of the 138 countries that report public and public guaranteed debt under the Debtor Reporting System (DRS). Also included are tables of selected debt and resource flow statistics for individual reporting countries as well as summary tables for regional and income groups. This year's report includes the external debt obligations of the Republic of Korea, a high-income country. Charts on pages xx to xxii summarize graphically the relation between debt stock and its components; the computation of net flows, aggregate net resource flow, and aggregate net transfers; and the relation between net resource flow and the balance of payments. Exact definitions of these and other terms are found in the Sources and Definitions section

    Series Statement: World Development Report
    Abstract: This is the twenty-first in the annual series assessing major development issues. This report acknowledges that knowledge, not capital, is the key to sustained economic growth and improvements in human well-being. It distinguishes between two sorts of knowledge:knowledge about technology, called technical knowledge or simply know-how, and knowledge about attributes, that is, knowledge about products, processes, or institutions. The report focuses on the relationship between the unequal distribution in know-how (knowledge gaps) across and within countries and the difficulties posed by having incomplete knowledge of attributes (information problems). In the first of three parts, the report discusses the importance of knowledge to development, and the risks and opportunities that the information revolution poses for developing countries. It then examines three critical steps that developing countries must take to narrow knowledge gaps:acquiring knowledge, absorbing knowledge, and communicating knowledge. Part 2 discusses the nature and extent of information problems, specific information problems, and three areas where information problems are most severe, namely in financial information, in environmental research, and in listening to the poor. Part 3 summarizes what knowledge and information requirements mean for developing government and international institution policies

    Series Statement: World Development Report
    Abstract: This is the twentieth in the annual series assessing major development issues. The report is devoted to the role and effectiveness of the state:what it should do, how it should do it, and how it can improve in a rapidly changing world. Governments with both centrally-planned and mixed economies are shrinking their market role because of failed state interventions. This report takes an opposite stance:that state's role in the institutional environment underlying the economy, that is, its ability to enforce a rule of law to underpin transactions, is vital to making government contribute more effectively to development. It argues against reducing government to a minimalist state, explaining that development requires an effective state that plays a facilitator role in encouraging and complementing the activities of private businesses and individuals. The report presents a state reform framework strategy:First, focus the state's activities to match its capabilities; and second, look for ways to improve the state's capability by re-invigorating public institutions. Successful and unsuccessful examples of states and state reform provide illustrations

    Series Statement: Global Economic Prospects
    Abstract: This 1997 report projects an increase in the growth rate of global input. The improvement is likely to be especially notable for Sub-Saharan Africa, which grew at around 4 percent in 1995 and 1996, and for the developing countries of Europe and Central Asia. Although the East Asian countries will have difficulty maintaining the extremely rapid pace of growth that they have enjoyed in the past decade, they are likely to continue to grow strongly. This year's report focuses on the implications of three important changes in the world economy for developing countries:1) Five large developing and transition economies-China, India, Indonesia, Brazil and Russia-are likely to emerge as key players in the world economy over the next quarter century. This will not only create new opportunities for trade and investment, but will also require significant adjustments in international patterns of specialization for both industrial and developing countries. 2) The expansion of global production networks by multinational enterprises opens new avenues for acquiring international know-how and participating in the gains from international trade. 3) Globalization is also posing broad and more complex policy challenges for governments, especially the proper handling of the costs of adjustment associated with trade liberalization. The report also contains global economic indicators, technical notes, and classification of economies

    Edition: Online-Ausg. World Bank E-Library Archive
    Abstract: In response to a request by the Deputies of the International Development Association, this report assesses the progress of private sector development in low-income countries, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa during IDA 9 and 10 periods. It identifies causes of uneven performance and outlines the main elements of a strategy - led by the private sector - for accelerated and shared growth to reduce poverty. Private sector development contributes to poverty reduction in two ways. First, it enhances competitive forces and competitiveness, which produce growth and jobs. Second, through divestiture of activities that the private sector can do as well or better, it allows governments to reduce waste and gain the fiscal space needed for greater investments in the social sectors and infrastructure. Those investments are " income equalizers " that provide skills and services required by the private to compete in today's skill-based global economy. This report argues that for private sector development to promote accelerated growth, progress on the macroeconomic front has to be buttressed with structural and institutional reforms to: improve business environments that remain harsh; reduce the drain of public enterprises; build robust financial systems; and increase the supply and quality of human resources and physical infrastructure

    Series Statement: Global Economic Prospects
    Abstract: This year's study focuses on the effects of globalization on developing countries and the growing divide between fast and slow-integrating economies. The pace of global economic integration continues to accelerate dramatically. In the ten years from 1985 to 1994, the ratio of world trade to GDP rose three times faster than during the previous decade. During this same ten-year period, foreign direct investment (FDI) doubled as a share of global GDP. Developing countries also participated extensively in the acceleration of global integration. A closer look, however, reveals sharp disparities between countries. Though developing countries in the aggregate kept pace with the world rate of trade integration, the ratio of trade to GDP actually fell in some 44 out of 93 developing countries in the last ten years. There were similar disparities in the distribution of FDI: two-thirds of total FDI went to just eight developing countries; half received little or none. This trend is likely to continue. Projections indicate that trade and investment will accelerate in those countries which open up to the global economy, and stay stagnant in those that do not. At the same time, there has never been a better time for developing countries to integrate. Projected generally favorable conditions in the global economy, including stable energy prices, low interest rates and inflation, and improved communications and transportation technology, have created an environment conducive to market liberalization. Moreover, traditional obstacles to developing country integration, such as high tariff barriers, are falling rapidly. Many developing countries in every part of the world have successfully pursued policies of greater openness to the global economy, and there is much to learn from their experience. The report documents the evidence, provides case study analyses, and makes recommendations about best-practice approaches to market liberalization, especially in the areas of trade and commodities. For many developing countries, successful globalization depends on fundamental economic reform, requiring difficult policy decisions that often lead to real short-term dislocation. These costs must be acknowledged from the outset, and the effects carefully taken into account in the design of the programs. But the costs are manageable. In fact, openness to external trade and investment is often the necessary first step to solid, sustainable economic development

    Series Statement: World Development Report
    Abstract: This World Development Report examines the transition of countries with alternative systems of centrally planned economies back to a market orientation. These countries seceded from the world market economy between 1917 and 1950 and now face a massive restructuring task. This transition goes beyond typical reforms because the change is deep and systemic, requiring the establishment of key market institutions. This report analyzes two sets of overarching questions. The first series focuses on the initial challenges of transition and how different countries have responded. It examines: (i) whether differences in transition policies and outcomes reflect different reform strategies, or whether they reflect primarily country-specific factors such as economic structure, the level of development, or the impact of simultaneous political changes; (ii) whether strong liberalization and stabilization policies are needed up front, or if other reforms can progress equally well without them; (iii) whether privatization is necessary early in the reform process or at all; and (iv) whether there has to be a gulf between winners and losers from transition. The second set of questions looks beyond these challenges to the longer-term agenda of consolidating the reforms by developing the institutions and policies that will help the new market system to flourish. It focuses on: (i) how countries in transition should develop and strengthen the rule of law and control corruption and organized crime; (ii) how they can build effective financial systems; (iii) how governments should restructure themselves to meet the needs of a market system; (iv) how countries can preserve and adapt their human skills base; (v) why international integration is so vital for transition, and what the implications are for trading partners and capital flows; and (vi) how external assistance can best support countries in transition

    Series Statement: World Development Report
    Abstract: This eighteenth annual report assesses what a more market-driven and integrated world means for workers. It asks which development strategies best address workers' needs, and what domestic labor market policies can do to establish a more equitable distribution of income, greater job security, and higher workplace standards, while preserving and indeed enhancing the efficiency of labor markets. The report concludes that global integration holds out the prospect of tremendous future gains for the world's work force - but no guarantees. Sound domestic and international policies are indispensable for realizing the promise of a prosperous, integrated global workplace. Policies that rely on markets while avoiding or correcting market failures, that invest in people[A[B, that provide a supportive environment for family farms as well as emerging industrial and service sectors - all these are good for workers. Governments continue to exercise important functions: building and maintaining the social framework within which workers, unions, and firms interact to set wages and working conditions; supporting workers who are hurt when industries or whole economies suffer major shocks; and defending the rights of the most vulnerable workers, whether they be child laborers victimized by exploitation, or women or ethnic minorities suffering from discrimination. In those economies that are less prepared to face global competition - in particular, those emerging from central planning - public action has a particularly important role in promoting labor mobility, easing the cost of transition, and reaching those left out. This report includes the World Development Indicators

    Abstract: Since 1991 the World Bank has been publishing "The World and Regional Supply and Demand Balances for Nitrogen, Phosphate, and Potash" on an annual basis in the form of World Bank Technical Papers. The current publication again provides statistical data in tabular format on the most recent historical fertilizer nutrient supply and demand balances as well as a five-year forecast and is based on the August 1995 assessments by the World Bank, the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations (UN), the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO), and the Industry Fertilizer Working Group (the "Group"). Global and regional data are presented for the three main fertilizer nutrients: nitrogen, phosphate, and potash. A brief introduction supplies some background on the activities and composition of the Group and explains its methodologies used for the projections

    Abstract: The twenthieth Annual Review of Evaluation Results presents the salient findings of operational assessments carried out in 1993. The review draws on project completion reports for 318 operations, performance audits for 100 operations, and diverse evaluation and impact studies. It looks in particular at project outcomes, the sustainability of benefits, and the extent to which operations addressed the Bank's thematic objectives - reducing poverty, and protecting the environment and developing the private sector as a means to sustainable inputs in the living standards of the poor. The key underlying determinants of outcomes and sustainability are explored and suggestions for improving performance offered. The review furnishes evidence of a stabilizing trend in operational outcomes and of improving trends in such indicators as physical achievements, re-estimated rates of return, and cost and time variations. The review confirms that improvements in portfolio management and quality at entry would lead to improved results - including better outcomes, greater sustainability, and more effective achievement of thematic goals

    Series Statement: Directions in Development - General
    Abstract: The countries of Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) stand at a point of transition. During the 1980s in the face of the unavoidable need to correct macroeconomic imbalances, economic growth largely came to a halt, some of the poor became poorer, and not only new investment but even routine maintenance of economic infrastructure was often neglected or deferred. This report suggests a number of ideas to help countries address their infrastructure challenges, including a variety of models for structuring the participation of domestic and international private capital. The report also states the World Bank's commitment to serve as a proactive catalyst for mobilizing private capital for improved infrastructure service provision in LAC. The World Bank will intensify efforts toward policy and regulatory reform and contribute financial resouces or provide guarantees to help strenghten infrastructurae in LAC
