This book considers the role of private firms in economic mobility. Private firms can be large or small. In many developing countries, small agricultural family firms employ the largest numbers of people, and these are private. Indeed, after the Chinese government let family farms make their own economic decisions in the late 1970s and early 1980s, the world witnessed the largest-scale exit from poverty in human history. Vietnam's experience in the past decade has been similar in this respect. Likewise, the informal sector is an entrepreneurial breeding ground. Private firms generate the overwhelming majority of jobs in the developing world and in transition countries. This does not mean that the role of the state in fostering economic progress is unimportant, quite the contrary. Indeed, fresh worldwide evidence examined in this book on the investment climates faced by private companies demonstrates loud and clear that good public governance is a sine qua non for sustained development. infrastructure, supports education and health, and acts as a facilitator, private firms respond by generating useful goods and services, by creating jobs, and by transferring technology. The volume spans a wide geographic spectrum and many diverse situations ranging from a small village in India to the family backgrounds of African entrepreneurs. The overview chapter summarizes each of the contributions in this rich volume, which provides an innovative contribution to modern development literature.
