Kosovo: A Strategy for Economic Development
December 19, 2001
Abstract
Kosovo cannot have a stable future without sustainable economic development. This report considers the task of promoting such development. After surveying the present state of the economy, it assesses the international efforts so far to lay the groundwork for future prosperity. It also considers the prospects for the former socially owned sector, including plans for privatisation and prospects for restructuring and investment.
Post-war reconstruction after the Yugoslav Army campaigns and NATO bombardment is only part of the challenge facing the international administration. Much of Kosovo's industry, long plagued by mismanagement and starved of investment, had become decrepit and would in any case have been unsalvageable.
