| Title: | | Privatization in East Germany: Can the Treuhandanstalt provide a model?  |
| Authors: | | Gupta, Asha |
| Issue Date: | | 1998 |
| Series/Report no.: | | Kiel Working Papers 849 |
| Abstract: | | The dynamics of privatization in the Eastern Germany can be better understood in terms of the 'economic polities' applied to the 'political markets'. The Treuhandanstalt played a key role in transforming the entire economy of the former GDR into the market economy in the wake of unification of East Germany with West Germany. The present study discusses the agency's structure, functions and responsibilities, on the one hand and financing, functioning and evaluation, on the other. Although the Treuhandanstalt provides a unique example of privatization by the state and the market, it cannot be duplicated or copied in toto. |
