@Bosnia And Herzegovina:Economy

Overview: Bosnia and Herzegovina ranked next to The Former Yugoslav
Republic of Macedonia as the poorest republic in the old Yugoslav
federation. Although agriculture has been almost all in private hands,
farms have been small and inefficient, and the republic traditionally
has been a net importer of food. Industry has been greatly
overstaffed, one reflection of the rigidities of Communist central
planning and management. TITO had pushed the development of military
industries in the republic with the result that Bosnia hosted a large
share of Yugoslavia's defense plants. As of February 1995, Bosnia and
Herzegovina was being torn apart by the continued bitter interethnic
warfare that has caused production to plummet, unemployment and
inflation to soar, and human misery to multiply. No economic
statistics for 1992-94 are available, although output clearly has
fallen substantially below the levels of earlier years and almost
certainly is well below $1,000 per head. The country receives
substantial amounts of humanitarian aid from the international
community.
