The best structural-adjustment programs are those in which the debtor country’s government proposes the policy changes, and the IMF helps design a bespoke program and provides the political cover for its implementation. Imposing them from the outside is simply not an effective option.
最好的结构调整计划应该让债务国政府实施政策变化，并由IMF帮助设计定制方案和提供实施方案的政治掩护。从外部实施这些政策绝非有效方法。因此，要想巩固改革，希腊政府及其选民必须相信改革政策。
