Thoughts on Planning in Western Economics

Edmond Malinvaud

Chapter 2 in Methods of Long-term Planning and Forecasting, 1976, pp 22-47 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Future economic growth raises for the developed nations of the world many questions, some of which have recently been the subject of heated debate [13].1 The theory of long-term planning seeks to clarify these questions in such a way that irreversible decisions about the future are taken in the best possible conditions. Hence it is a very important activity for those countries which are most advanced on the road of material progress.
