Economy
-------
Economic overview: With its long history of semifeudal social
controls, dependence on volatile prices for its mineral exports, and
bouts of hyperinflation, Bolivia has remained one of the poorest and
least developed Latin American countries. However, Bolivia has
experienced generally improving economic conditions since the PAZ
Estenssoro administration (1985-89) introduced market-oriented
policies which reduced inflation from 11,700% in 1985 to about 20%
in 1988. PAZ Estenssoro was followed as president by Jaime PAZ
Zamora (1989-93) who continued the free-market policies of his
predecessor, despite opposition from his own party and from
Bolivia's once powerful labor movement. By maintaining fiscal
discipline, PAZ Zamora helped reduce inflation to 9.3% in 1993,
while GDP grew by an annual average of 3.25% during his tenure.
Inaugurated in August 1993, President SANCHEZ DE LOZADA has vowed to
advance the market-oriented economic reforms he helped launch as PAZ
Estenssoro's planning minister. His successes so far have included
the signing of a free trade agreement with Mexico and progress on
his unique privatization plan. The main privatization bill was
passed by the Bolivian legislature in late March 1994. Since that
time, the administration has privatized the electric power
generation sector, the state airline, the state telephone company,
and the national railroad. The state mining and petroleum companies
are expected to be privatized in 1996.

@Bosnia and Herzegovina
----------------------
On 21 November 1995, in Dayton, Ohio, the former Yugoslavia's three
warring parties signed a peace agreement that brought to a halt over
three years of interethnic civil strife in Bosnia and Herzegovina
(the final agreement was signed in Paris on 14 December 1995). The
Dayton Agreement, signed by Bosnian President IZETBEGOVIC, Croatian
President TUDJMAN, and Serbian President MILOSEVIC, divides Bosnia
and Herzegovina roughly equally between the Muslim/Croat Federation
and the Bosnian Serbs while maintaining Bosnia's currently
recognized borders. An international peacekeeping force (IFOR) of
60,000 troops began to enter Bosnia in late 1995 to implement and
monitor the military aspects of the agreement and is scheduled to
depart the country within one year. A High Representative appointed
by the UN Security Council is responsible for civilian
implementation of the accord, including monitoring implementation,
facilitating any difficulties arising in connection with civilian
implementation, and coordinating activities of the civilian
organizations and agencies in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The Bosnian
conflict began in the spring of 1992 when the Government of Bosnia
and Herzegovina held a referendum on independence and the Bosnian
Serbs - supported by neighboring Serbia - responded with armed
resistance aimed at partitioning the republic along ethnic lines and
joining Serb-held areas to form a "greater Serbia." In March 1994,
Bosnia's Muslims and Croats reduced the number of warring factions
from three to two by signing an agreement in Washington creating
their joint Muslim/Croat Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Geographic note: as of January 1996, Bosnian Serb leaders
continued to demand revisions to the territorial aspects of the
Dayton Agreement, especially in Sarajevo - designated to be under
Federation control - and the Brcko/Posavina corridor area; members
of the Bosnian Croat community also reject several territorial
aspects of the agreement, citing that historically Bosnian Croat
lands are to be transferred to Bosnian Serb control; despite
disagreements, initial implementation of the agreement as of January
1996 appeared on course with the warring parties meeting the
deadline for withdrawal of forces from the front lines in Sarajevo

Economy
-------
Economic overview: Bosnia and Herzegovina ranked next to The
Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia as the poorest republic in the
old Yugoslav federation. Although agriculture has been almost all in
private hands, farms have been small and inefficient, and the
republic traditionally has been a net importer of food. Industry has
been greatly overstaffed, one reflection of the rigidities of
communist central planning and management. TITO had pushed the
development of military industries in the republic with the result
that Bosnia hosted a large share of Yugoslavia's defense plants. The
bitter interethnic warfare in Bosnia caused production to plummet,
unemployment and inflation to soar, and human misery to multiply. No
economic statistics for 1992-95 are available, although output
clearly has fallen substantially below the levels of earlier years
and almost certainly is well below $1,000 per head. The country
receives substantial amounts of humanitarian aid from the
international community.
