POSSIBLE SOCIAL POLICY DEVELOPMENTS AND CORRESPONDING STATISTICAL REQUIREMENTS

René Bertrand

Review of Income and Wealth, 1983, vol. 29, issue 1, 89-93

Abstract: Production maximization, together with an appropriate distribution of income and wealth, can no longer be considered as the exclusive objective of socio‐economic policies. Economic and social life is accompanied by numerous hardships, constraints and damages which demand to be minimized. Combining these dual aims is not easy as no single model has yet been set up taking into account all these inter‐relations. However, one may try to reduce the uncertainty about the statistical material that could be required for decision‐making in this new context.
