(i) the paradox of growth and stability, (ii) the immiserizing effects of structural adjustment, (iii) the paradox of growing unemployment in a framework of full employment goals, (iv) the growth of market imperfections while pursuing a strategy of creating perfectly competitive markets, and (v) the paradox of the World Trade Organization trading system.
