dc.description.abstract | This paper compiles alternative estimates of underground economies in twenty five transition countries during the transition decade and finds a disturbing lack of convergence between them, calling into question the reliability of GDP figures (which in varying degrees now include non-transparent imputations for the ìnonobserved economyî) as well as the macro model estimates of the unrecorded economy. | en_US |
