Bring the Right One in: International Organizations and Privatization Strategies in Slovenia, Croatia and Serbia

Summary/Abstract: This paper shall examine the effectiveness of the varieties of privatization implemented in three counties in Ex-Yugoslavia: Slovenia, Croatia, and Serbia. In addition to studying the effectiveness of the privatization strategies this paper shall also investigate the impact of various international actors and agencies; such as the EBRD, EU, IMF, World Bank, etc., on the choice of privatization method and on the success or failure of its implementation. What this research reveals, is a decreasing enthusiasm amongst international actors for privatization which in turn decreases the pressure on states to privatize, allowing them to prevaricate and leading to inefficient privatization outcomes.
