Abstract: In the 1960's Pakistan's economy started generating rates of growth of over 5 per cent per year-higher than those observed in many other underdeveloped countries including its neighbours. Industry is growing rapidly. Exports are increasing by over 7 per cent per year. Perhaps more significant, many believe, an agricultural revolution is underway. Some observers consider this to be remarkable and a model of development in the non-socialist world. However, the brief growth experience of the 1960's, after the long stagnation during the 1950's, can hardly be a basis for definitive conclusions about longrun development. Observation of a longer period and evidence of certain basic conditions are necessary for such extrapolation.
