International Monetary Fund .. And conditions are unfair to Iraq ..;; / Ali Asadi
Development is very modest relative who witnessed the Iraqi economy during the five decades that preceded the invasion of Iraq in 2003 may have been due to economic policies geared, in which it played a prominent role to the state sector,
Particularly in the fields of light industry and construction industries, minerals and petrochemicals, oil and filter. And been a mainstay of industrialization policy pursued during this period is the policy of trade protectionism moderate, but they have become extremely stringent in the years of Alhsaralaguetsadi imposed by the UN Security Council on Iraq, under pressure from the United States Ithergzo Kuwait in 1990. The purpose of protectionist policy measures that support national production, in which the security of tens of thousands of Iraqi workforce permanent jobs, and advancing the internal market Import substitute products. But the policy of economic openness that has unleashed during the occupation era, and continued in the implementation of the current Iraqi government, has seriously damaged the local production sector, which were not directed or controlled, but chaotic. It was no surprise that the implementation of that policy to the closure of more than 180 thousand of small and medium, in addition to dozens of major projects, and the displacement of workers to join the army of unemployment, which is increasing day after day.
It appears that Iraqi officials had caved, consciously or unconsciously with the terms of the International Monetary Fund ال That compel them by promises of pay and to agree to give Iraq loans and soft. Among the conditions the implementation of the policy of openness to the foreign market, including freedom of entry and exit of goods and capital, and an end to work the ration cards, and the privatization of public sector projects, and open the industry to extract oil Astosmaralojunbi, and stopping all forms of government support to economic activity. Has resulted in a gradual support of fuel and food commodities to damage the lives of millions of low-income and poor. Although hundreds of articles that appealed to her the ministries concerned to follow protectionist policies for our production national from foreign competition, but it remained as it was, there was no one who hears or listens, as long as the International Monetary Fund has expressed satisfaction with the open market policy pursued by the Iraqi government.
The directors of the International Monetary Fund are not interested in negative effects on society caused by their own terms rigid bureaucracy, and are not interested in the fact that more foreign goods flooding the markets, are the goods, supported by the Governments of exporting countries, while pushing our economy, the price of unemployment and hard currency we need it . Kuwait, Syria and Turkey to support its agricultural production, and China supports the industrial output, these products flooding our domestic markets, With our products face neglect from the government and consumers alike.
In the last report of the International Monetary Fund as of 10/01/2010 praised the "good progress" achieved by Iraq in restructuring its economy, and Biivaih terms to cease any support for manufacturers and farmers (1). IMF experts know well, it can not be Ttoiralsnaat and small-scale agriculture without protection from foreign competition, or without financial aid government, to help them overcome the difficulties they face in the early stages of their activity, or during recessions and economic crises faced by the economy in general. اAdvanced industrial countries themselves had provided generous support for the industrial and agricultural projects throughout its long history since the beginning of the industrial revolution, they are doing it now too. ال United States of America alone supports some of the billions of dollars of agricultural products, has promised to spend seven hundred billion dollars to help banks and automotive industries facing financial difficulties. And some states exempt federal projects the new production from the payment of income taxes for a period ranging between 50-10 years. This is an important indication on the importance of government intervention to build the national economy, and protection in the international competitive conditions and in periods of recession and stagnation, which was on the examples of Iraq do likewise, do not back down under pressure from the International Monetary Fund or other.
South Korea, Thailand and Malaysia, has refused to cancel the Fund's guidance for government intervention in economic activity, but on the contrary, went ahead with the development-oriented economic policy, was at the forefront of Asian countries, where currently enjoy the highest economic growth rate in the world. You have reached annual growth rate ranging between 7% to 10.5%, its economy has been vaccinated against the recent financial crisis experienced by all major industrialized nations without exception. And growing industrial production rate of more than 10% annually, and the number of workers in the manufacturing sector than 5% of the population before the implementation of the policy of government intervention to 25% of the population currently, and the increased contribution of the industrial sector in the gross national product to more than 30%, and is expected to reach the income per capita in the three countries the level of per capita income in the United States of America in 2020. إن The economists and industrialists around the globe have praised the development made by the three countries, where they saw living proof of the merits of the market system. In fact, there is no close link between economic prosperity achieved in the three countries, and capitalist "laissez-faire .. let him pass" prevailing in the countries of the Organization of Economic Cooperation and Development. We have implemented these countries, government financial support great at all levels of economic activities, using a variety of methods that allow the opportunity to guide the development process (2).
و Contrary to what goes by the three countries of the rejection of the IMF conditions, أ Taken by Russia in the nineties as a condition for granting loans and billions of dollars, used to restructure its Fund stipulate a condition in contrast to the Russian government's privatization of the state sector projects, was charged with this process and the loss of Russia's economy alone an estimated three trillion dollars of real value, which sold to foreign companies, American and German nominal prices play a role in which corruption and feathered. Although more than a quarter of a century to begin the implementation of the Fund's guidance, is still the Russian economy reeling under the annual inflation rates exceeded 13% annually, and an unemployment rate exceeded 9.5%, and is expected to rise to 12.7% the end of the second half of this year, bringing the number of unemployed about 9.5 million unemployed, and there are no indications currently out of the country's current economic recession (3).
IMF and World Bank international institutions that Promote strongly the ideas of neo-liberal school according to their opinion which they are famous, namely: "All that is released in favor of the market .. The state intervention is evil." But the current economic crisis experienced by the advanced capitalist countries of the world economically, did not come as a result of "state intervention bad," but rather the result of what the market created by the financial and capital associated with them organically, which has never been in favor of the community. Victims of the economic crisis in the first place are the working classes and the elderly, children and the unemployed. Spain is, for example, stands on the brink of social catastrophe, where unemployment reached 20%, and forced thousands of workers on ت Wage cut, while another section is turning to temporary workers. It was also Increase in indirect taxes, thus forcing part of a wide range of people to live within the limits of subsistence, as budgets have been reduced social solidarity, unemployment and destitution allowances and child health care and pensions. The Irish and British government to take similar measures, had the same thing had happened in Greece before that. إن The recipe of the International Monetary Fund, "all produced by the market in favor of state intervention .. evil" Not been vaccinated developed capitalist countries themselves against crises, of which promoted the "sorcery," How can a fragile economies such as the economy of Iraq to stand on its feet?
