Summary |
The Atlantic Council Freedom and Prosperity Center has assembled a collection of essays that highlight examples of well-designed and technically sound public policies. This volume convincingly shows that greater freedom is the path toward durable development for countries around the world. When individuals can take destiny into their own hands, and when government guarantees economic freedom, the most creative solutions are unleashed, and the most complex problems are resolved. The Atlantic Council Freedom and Prosperity Center presents the efforts of those who have made effective public policy possible, and the results are of extreme value for those embracing the challenge of changing their countries for the better |
