Virtually all the world's formerly planned economies have recently undertaken systemic reforms with the ultimate objective of replacing central planning with reliance on market mechanisms. To date, The results of the liberalization efforts in Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union (FSU) have been disappointing. In contrast, output in the transitional economies of Asia (TEAs)--comprising China, Laos, Mongolia, Myanmar and Vietnam--has generally continued to grow after liberalization at more or less the same rate as during the pre-reform period. The objectives of this paper are to: (i) compare the economic performance of the TEAs and Eastern Europe and the FSU in the post-reform period; (ii) account for the differences in economic performance; and (iii) develop recommendations on policies and operational steps for future economic reform in transitional economies, including the designing and sequencing of reform measures Introduction
