Public finance; Privatisation

Are resources allocated more efficiently through private ownership than through the public sector? The experiences of 11 newly privatized companies are examined to evaluate this hypothesis. With the Government's pro-privatization policies in place for over a decade, this is a prime time to evaluate theory versus reality.
