Abstract: Abstract Any society which aims at economic progress must strive for an increase in the rate of saving and investment, a widespread diffusion of technical skills among its people, and a framework of leadership that permits a reasonable degree of coherence in its efforts. These and many other aspects of national endeavour which are a necessary and integral part of the process of development cannot nevertheless be dignified to the status of a ‘strategy’. For strategy implies essentially a deliberate choice — a choice of the point and timing and manner of attack on the problem at hand.
