RESTRUCTURING IS NOW A GLOBAL EFFORT. IN THE CENTRALLY PLANNED ECONOMIES (CPES) OF EASTERN EUROPE AND OF ASIA, AS IN THE OECD (ORGANIZATION OF ECONOMIC COOPERATION AND DEVELOPMENT) STATES AND THE LESS-DEVELOPED CAPITALIST COUNTRIES, THE STATES ARE ENGAGED IN CERTAIN FUNDAMENTAL STRUCTURAL CHANGES. IN EACH OF THESE COUNTRIES DURING THE 1980S THERE WERE BOTH ECONOMIC AND POLITICAL REASONS FOR RESTRUCTURING IN SOME FASHION, AND MANY OF THEM PARALLELED THOSE IN THE REST OF THE WORLD ECONOMY. WHILE NOT MINIMIZING THE IMPORTANCE OF GORBACHEV'S POLICY OF CULTURAL "OPENNESS" AS A WELCOME CONTRAST TO THE OPPRESSIVE CONDITIONS OF THE PRECEDING DECADES, HERE THE AUTHOR FOCUSES ON A NUMBER OF QUESTIONS ON THE DIRECTION OF THE ECONOMY AND THE CONTRADICTIONS IN RESTRUCTURING. THIS FOCUS IN NO WAY IMPLIES THAT THE TRADITIONAL FORM OF SOVIET ECONOMIC ORGANIZATION WAS A PREFERABLE ONE.

MR. MIKHAIL GORBACHEV'S LATEST REFORM PROPOSALS, THE LATEST STOP IN THE STOP-GO IMPLEMENTATION OF THE REFORM PROGRAMME IN CHINA, AND THE FEAR THAT HAS BEEN EXPRESSED ON THE SHOP-FLOOR IN HUNGARY THAT THE ECONOMIC REFORM MAY ERODE LIVING STANDARDS HAVE ONCE MORE FOCUSED ATTENTION ON THE ISSUE OF ECONOMIC REFORM IN CENTRALLY-PLANNED ECONOMIES. HOW FAR-REACHING ARE SUCH REFORMS? WHAT ARE THE LIMITS TO REFORMS? AND, LAST BUT NOT LEAST, WHAT ECONOMIC AND POLITICAL CONSEQUENCES MIGHT THEY ENTAIL? THESE ARE SOME OF THE QUESTIONS DISCUSSED IN THIS ARTICLE.

This paper presents some general‐equilibrium models of the parallel market in centrally planned economies. The models are based on the hypotheses that private firms can operate more efficiently than bureaucratically‐run state enterprises and that Soviet‐type economies are characterized by price controls and quantitative allocations. The state's enforcement policy is explicitly modeled. Although the welfare implications of the parallel market for workers are ambiguous in general, under a variety of circumstances they turn out to be negative. For instance, responding to the shortage created by price controls, illegal firms divert resources from the official economy into the parallel market. The result is a higher price in the parallel market without any increase in the total supply of the good.

Much research into the economics of socialist planned economies has emphasized macroeconomic issues central to setting and meeting macroeconomic goals, and research on the theory of the firm in capitalist economies is not generally relevant to socialist economies. In this volume, leading economists from both East and West fill the gap in the literature by examining in critical detail many different aspects of the microeconomics of the firm in socialist economies.
The still chaotic states of the former Soviet Union, a growing China, and the divergent nations of Eastern Europe are striving to radically transform their economies. In their quest to become more integrated with the global economy, they are making historic changes to move toward market-based, private-enterprise systems. In this book, Barry P. Bosworth and Gur Ofer provide a balanced assessment of the progress of integration among the formerly centrally planned economies. So far, the results of the reform process range from amazing success in China to economic and political disarray in the states of the former Soviet Union. The authors outline the key issues that any successful reform program must address and the sequence in which these reforms should take place.
