ABSTRACT
There have been many indications of late, particularly during the past year, that the Egyptian administration has come to realize the failure of the policies that have governed our economic and political life since the late 1950s and through the 1960s. Specifically, I am referring to the policies limiting the role of the private sector and reducing areas of cooperation with multinational companies, and to those governing agriculture, industry, housing and education – policies to which all of Egypt’s major problems can be traced.
