 Moving Beyond the Privatization Debate
Different Approaches to Financing Water and Electricity in Developing Countries
Daniel Platz and Frank Schroeder
Whether or not to privatize essential services in developing countries has been subject to
a long and heated controversy. Platz and Schröder provide a new perspective and try to overcome the ideological tug of war. Rather than asking “who should provide the services”, the authors adopt a financing point of view and look at how access to basic utilities for all can be funded in a sustainable manner.
