OxTalks is Changing
Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
IMF programs and technical assistance in the Balkans-what has been achieved?
The first part of this presentation reviews the record, in a quantitative manner, of IMF programs in Southeastern Europe (not including Greece) over the past ten years. It also examines the evolving nature of IMF access (scale of financing) and conditionality in the region over this period. The second part of the presentation will attempt to answer the question why technical assistance often fails. An attempt will be made to extrapolate some general principles from the author’s experience of working in Southeastern Europe. What does and does not work, and why?
