Abstract
In the 1980s there has been a world-wide trend towards privatization: the transfer of assets from the public to the private sector. This paper examines governments ' motives for privatization, which include increased efficiency, market pressures, lessened political interference, reduced power of trade unions, expanded opportunities for private enterprise, and governments' financed needs.
