Document Summary
Skilled shock therapists-business growth: many qualified shock therapists forget that the growth of the industry does not carry unnecessary social and human costs. The task is to build solutions that can combine fast change with lower human cost. It is no use shrugging social suffering away with the banal assumption that suffering is inevitable in a big transformation of the economy. The most important problem is the distribution of pain: either the vulnerable or the wealthy economic classes suffer from it. Most of the misery to the poor can be avoided by putting the adjustment burden on the wealthy strata of society the military government, corporate tax evaders, feudal pensioners, selfish civil servants, higher income earners. The international institutions should measure the distribution of transition pain in a society and attempt to protect the vulnerable, rather than nonchalantly ignore the issue.
