Abstract
For macroeconomics, the 1980s have been very rich when it comes to policy experiences in the developing countries. In fact, one may speak of many of these countries as constituting laboratories for macroeconomic programmes. Toward the end of the decade, we are trying to draw the lessons from the many experiments or endeavours to find the right macroeconomic answers to serious economic problems of imbalances and slow, or negative growth in per capita terms.
