In
a
prefatory
comment,
Professor
Bertram
M.
Gross,
general
editor
of
the
National
Planning
Series,
of
which
this
volume
is
No.5,
explains
the
conditions
that
led
to
the
need
for
and
comparative
success
of
development
planning
in
Israel.
The
joint
authors
show
that,
paradoxically,
national
planning,
with
contradictory
forces
that
partly
hinder
and
partly
encourage
it,
is
only
beginning.
As,
besides
other
factors,
the
Jewish
population
rose
from
700
thousand
in
1948
to
1.4
million
in
1951
and
over
2.2
million
in
1964,
and
economic
con-
ditions
depend
more
than
in
most
places
on
political
variables,
much
of
the
planning
has
been
pragmatic
and
in
the
form
of
single-facet
planning.
A
few
thought-provoking
tentative
hypotheses
for
compa-
rative
research
are
appended.

This
introduction
to
the
national
government’s
role
in
the
American
economy
begins
with
a
brief
his-
torical
examination
of the
United
States
economy,
explaining
the
causes
of
the
expansion
of
govern-
ment
activity.
It
then
deals
with
the
relationship
between
public
administration
and
economic
policy,
fiscal
and
monetary
policy,
the
role
of
the
public
enterprise,
and
government-labour
relations.
The
last
two
chapters
discuss
agricultural
problems
and
recent
trends
in
welfare.
The
book
gives
a
good
general
idea
of
the
forces
at
work,
including
the
political
parties,
interest
groups,
and
administrative
agencies.
It
is
intended
for
the
general
reader,
teacher,
or
student
interested
in
political-economic
relationships.

Aid
for
Development.
A
Political
and
Economic
Study.
London,
Bod-
ley
Head,
1966.
256
pages,
25s.
An
able
and
comprehensive
survey
of
the
eco-
nomic
relations
between
developed
and
developing
countries.
Aid
is
taken
in
its
broadest
sense
to
include
not
only
grants
and
loans,
but
also
private
investment
and
trade.
The
author
examines
the aid
given
by
Western
countries,
those
of
the
communist
bloc,
and
the
role
of
international
organizations,
especially
the
United
Nations
agencies.
In
spite
of
all
the
aid
and
investment
received
by
the
developing
countries,
the
results
are,
in
the
author’s
view,
rather
insignificant.
Between
1950
and
1960,
the
income
of
less
developed
countries
as
a
whole
increased
annually
by
4.4
per
cent,
but
the
population
rate
increased
much
faster.
Mr.
Arnold
concludes
with
a
comparison
between
Western
and
Eastern
technical
assistance,
criticizing
some
aspects
of
both
and
ex-
pressing
the
opinion
that
there
is
no
drastic
cure
for
underdevelopment.

L’exposé
com-
porte
trois
chapitres :
g6n6ralit6s
sur
les
Ratios
so-
ciaux,
definition
de
ceux-ci
et
recommandations
g6-
n6rales,
relatives,
d’une
part,
au
calcul
des
Ratios
sociaux
et,
d’autre
part,
a
leur
utilisation.
La
conclusion
de
1’etude
est
presentee
d’une
ma-
niere
assez
originale :
on
y
insiste
successivement
sur
ce
que
n’est
pas
et
sur
ce
qu’est
1’ouvrage,
avec
une
grande
prudence
dans
1’expression
et
dans
la
d6marche.
En
effet,
les
auteurs
ne
considèrent
pas
ce
livre
comme
un
aboutissement,
mais
comme
une
6tape
et
souhaitent
qu’il
puisse
servir
de
base
pour
fixer
les
grandes
lignes
d’une
enqu8te
élargie,
a
laquelle
participeraient
les
lecteurs
et
tous
les
grou-
pements
professionnels
int6ress6s

Le
theme
6tant
d’une
grande
ampleur
-
le
droit
administratif
au
sein
de
l’Etat
de
droit,
d’une
part,
liberal,
d’autre
part,
social
-
l’auteur
fait
preuve
d’6minentes
qualit6s
de
synth6se
pour
le
traiter
au
regard
de
la
doctrine
de
langue
allemande.
Sa
th6se
est
que
les
transformations
sociales
coincidant
avec
I’av6nement
de
l’Etat
de
droit
social
modifient
subs-
tantiellement
le
droit
administratif,
le
processus
de
mutation
n’6tant
d’ailleurs
pas
termin6.
Reprenant
un
point
de
vue
assez
r6pandu
dans
les
milieux
juridiques
allemands,
il
souligne
toutes
les
diff6-
rences
de
but,
de
conception
et
de
th6orie
qui dis-
tinguent
1’ancien
et
le
nouveau
droit
administratif
en
fonction
de
la
transformation
des
fins
de
l’Etat.
