ABSTRACT
Out of a welter of diverse perceptions and interpretations, of opinions and prescriptions, it does not seem easy at first to draw any single clear conclusion. Looking back over the chapters in this volume it is hard to think of one which entirely agrees in analysis, prognosis, or policy recommendation with another. Perhaps the nearest approximation is between the two global Keynesians (Jolly and Nakazawa), on the one hand, and the two liberal market economists (Tumlir and Curzon Price), on the other. But between these two pairs and amongst many of the other contributors, deep gulfs of disagreement yawn.
