Extract

This was the second annual Seminar for university teachers of economics held by the African Institute for Economic Development and Planning (I.D.E.P.). There were 22 anglophone—and unfortunately only 10 francophone— participants, from 28 teaching and research institutions in 16 African countries. The following papers were presented: ‘The Necessity and Limitations of Planning as a Tool for Economic Development’, by Professor Diran Bodenhorn, University of Ibadan; ‘The Use of Critical Path Analysis as an Aid to Planning in African Countries’, by J. R. Jurcan, University of Glasgow; ‘Planning as a Tool for Economic Integration in Africa’, by Professor H. C. Bos, Netherlands School of Economics; and ‘Planning in Agriculture: techniques and problems’, by J. Dalton, Economic Commission for Africa, Addis Ababa.
