Decentralized Procedures for Planning

Edmond Malinvaud

Chapter Chapter 7 in Activity Analysis in the Theory of Growth and Planning, 1967, pp 170-208 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract One of the main aims of long-term plans, which are drawn up in many countries, is to facilitate the formation of a productive system which will be adapted to the needs of future growth. To attain this objective, one must find the best solution to the multiple technical options which arise in different branches of activity. The plan should incorporate the best grouping of productive operations which can be implemented, given the country’s resources and technological possibilities.
