CEED Institute je izdal zanimivo poročilo “How much state in the economy?”, v kateri nekaj uglednih osebnosti (med njimi Leszek Balcerowicz, András Inotai, Horst Köhler, Ivan Mikloš, …) ter moja malenkost) razpravlja o vlogi države v gospodarstvu.
Moj prispevek se nanaša na vlogo države v slovenskem gospodarstvu v dveh desetletjih po začetku tranzicije. Poanta teksta je, da je bila v Sloveniji država preveč aktivna na napačnih mestih (kot aktivna ali pasivna lastnica) in premalo aktivna tam, kjer bi morala biti (kot regulator trga). Spodaj je kratek izsek iz teksta, celoten tekst ter prispevki ostalih avtorjev pa so dostopni v CEED dokumentu.
While the ongoing economic crisis raised serious doubts about the self-regulatory nature of markets and showed that redefinition was needed of the role of the state in the economy, this does not necessarily apply to Slovenia. At least not to the same extent. In the last two decades in Slovenia one can hardly talk about the dominant role of the markets in determining social outcomes. It is rather a combination of the unfinished privatization, insufficient regulation and lack of supervision that caused much of the problem. While in most countries it was reckless lending by the insufficiently regulated private banks to private firms that set the stage for the crisis, in Slovenia it was mostly the politically motivated lending policies of the poorly regulated state-owned banks to state-controlled and insufficiently regulated firms. There was too much government in the wrong place and too little government where it was needed. Nadaljujte z branjem
