The prescriptions provided will be of value to not just those who work on Egypt but anybody with an interest in development policy.” — Kaushik Basu, Professor of Economics and Carl Marks Professor of International Studies, Cornell University and former Chief Economist of the World Bank “This masterful analysis of Egypt’s policymaking over the past 70 years is an important contribution to understanding how ‘crises, disruptions and bad ideas’ have impeded the country from realizing its potential. Look to this book for key insights that can help pave the way for durable high-quality growth.” —Mohamed El-Erian, President, Queens’ College, Cambridge University “This is a brilliant case study of an important country. But much more than that, it is full of insights for Egypt and also an important contribution to our understanding of the political economy of growth and development.” —A. Michael Spence, Nobel Laureate in Economics This book frames an optimal policy agenda for Egyptian decision-makers to create a better future for the Egyptian people in the face of today’s big crises. In showing how Egypt can best navigate risks and seize the opportunities of the current period of intense flux and transition, the authors provide useful lessons for other governments struggling to respond to the challenges of our age.
