The Political Economy of Special Economic Zones Concentrating Economic Development

The Political Economy of Special Economic Zones Concentrating Economic Development

Special Economic Zones (SEZs) have become a popular development policy throughout the world over the last half a century. These zones form designated areas where governments offer businesses lower taxes tariffs and often lighter regulations. Generally SEZs aim to attract investments and raise a country’s export and employment rates but although success stories are often cited there are numerous failed projects that have instead become burdens for their host countries. This book examines SEZs from a political economy perspective both to dissect the incentives of governments zone developers and exporters and to uncover both the hidden costs and untapped potential of zone policies. Costs include misallocated resources the encouragement of rent-seeking and distraction of policy-makers from more effective reforms. However the zones also have several unappreciated benefits. They can change the politics of a country by generating a transition from a system of rent-seeking to one of liberalized open markets. In revealing the hidden promise of SEZs this book shows how the SEZ model of development can succeed in the future. Applying frameworks from various schools of political economy this volume places SEZs in the context of their mixed past and promising future. It is essential reading for anyone with an interest in international economics development economics and political economy including practitioners and consultants of SEZ policies. | The Political Economy of Special Economic Zones Concentrating Economic Development
