| Abstract: | Economywide reforms often contribute simultaneously to economic, social and environmental gains. However, unintended adverse side effects occur in many cases -- when such growth including reforms are undertaken while neglecting other policy, market or institutional imperfections. The remedy does not generally require reversal of the original economywide reforms, but rather the ex-ante implementation of additional complementary measures that remove such imperfections. |
