The Financial And Operating Performance Of Privatized Firms During The 1990s
During the past two decades, the privatization of state-owned enterprises has moved from being a radical, almost desperate, policy initiative of the Thatcher government in Britain to being an accepted economic policy for governments of all ideological stripes.
