Abstract

Economic policy reform requires an extensive analysis of the current political conditions and the reform's possible implications. Economists should collaborate with political scientists and apply appropriate analytical models for an in-depth study of economic and political policies. Moreover, the nearsightedness of political policies should be identified and avoided to prevent the conflict between the reforms and political interests which could defeat the reform's purpose of providing public good.
