First printing April 1998 The Annual World Bank Conference on Development Economics is a forum for dis- cussion and debate of important policy issues facing developing countries. The confer- ences emphasize the contribution that empirical and basic economic research can make to understanding development processes and to formulating sound development poli- cies. Conference papers are written by researchers in and outside the World Bank. The conference series was started in 1989. Conference papers are reviewed by the editors and are also subject to internal and external peer review. Summaries are included of floor discussions, which attempt to convey the sense and substance of what was discussed, interventions by participants from the floor, and responses by panelists. These summaries have not been reviewed by the presenters, the discussants, or other participants. Participants' affiliations identified in this volume are as of the time of the conference, April 30-May 1, 1997. The findings, interpretations, and conclusions expressed in this volume are entirely those of the authors and should not be attributed in any manner to the World Bank, to its affiliated organizations, or to members of its Board of Executive Directors or the countries they represent.
