An opportunity for a different Peru. Prosperous, equitable, and governable

Written by a team of international experts both within and outside the World Bank, this comprehensive report provides a sector-by-sector analysis of Peru's development position. Rather than prescribing specific reforms, the authors indicate a wide range of policy options available to the country's newly-elected government. In general, the authors advocate focusing on three main goals: an economy that generates jobs, a new social contract, and a state that citizens can be proud of. The volume is not indexed.
