"Iraq Economic Reform: Lessons Learned from Central Europe and Eurasia"

Featuring:
Professor Peter Boettke, Deputy Director, James M. Buchanan Center for Political Economy, George Mason University, and Robert E. Anderson, Consultant, and Ed Morse, Executive Advisor, Hess Energy Trading Co., LLC

Iraq is facing severe economic hardship. The rule of law, fundamental economic reform, a stable currency, and massive privatization will be needed to pull the country out of its post-Saddam morass. Nowhere have economic liberalization and privatization been attempted on a wider scale than in Central and Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union. After over a decade of trial and error, victories and setbacks, much can be learned from the post-communist experience.

12pm-1:30pm in the Heritage Foundation's Van Andel Center. Please RSVP online.
