Reshaping Australia's Economy draws together some of the best economists and public policy analysts in Australia to provide a major 'audit' of the economy. The book evaluates the impact of recent economic reform and restructuring in Australia and then pinpoints what is required to ensure vigorous growth with socially and environmentally acceptable outcomes for the future. Leading economists write on Australia's productivity growth, international trade orientation, unemployment, labour market reform, capital market efficiency, immigration and education policies and the impact of the ageing population. Other writers consider the social, regional and environmental dimensions of growth, with probing assessments of Australia's performance in the 'new economy', public sector reform and an evaluation of how corporate governance impacts on growth.
