What are the effects of structural reforms, especially trade liberalization, deregulation, and privatization, on growth in the short and long runs? How do macroeconomic instability and adjustment policies affect income distribution and poverty? How does the specific design of structural adjustment efforts affect results?In this companion toMacroeconomics of Populism in Latin America, the authors confirm that macroeconomic stability has a positive effect on income distribution.
