Foreign Capital and Development Strategy in Irish Industrialization, 1958-70
In the 1930s the government of the Irish Republic instituted an import substitution economic development strategy to diversify economic activity. This potential was later exhausted. In 1958 a new strategy was adopted, emphasizing the use of foreign capital and reliance on the external market. It yielded many benefits, detailed in this paper, but involved a number of shortcomings associated with multinational corporations when they operate in less…
The Role of Social Scientific Inquiry in Technology Transfer
Technology, the application of science to achieve practical results in the area of production (as economists use the term), can be understood only in a limited way from a strict disciplinary framework such as those prevailing in the social sciences. Perhaps the most restrictive is the limitation from the viewpoint of economics. The author (an economist) illustrates this contention with some interdisciplinary dimensions of technology encountered i…
Ragnar Frisch
Ragnar Frisch's main contributions are in the field of econometrics. This paper discusses Frisch's contribution to the political economy of planning. It argues that although planning was not a special feature of classical political economy, Frisch nonetheless shared in the broader social and moral aspirations of political economy; for Frisch, these were the ultimate objectives of planning. To this end the paper discusses Frisch's approach to the …
The Impact of Natural Disasters on Third World Agriculture
This is essentially an exploration of the available information on the effects of natural disasters on Third World agriculture. These effects are a powerful partial explanation of the lack of agricultural self-sufficiency in a large number of low income countries; and consequently go some way in explaining the occurrence of hunger and poverty in such countries. The paper argues for the systematic collection of economic data on disasters and its a…

The 'basic needs' strategy in development planning calls for giving priority to meeting minimum human needs and providing certain essential public services. This investigations studies its relevancy for developing technology and change in low income countries. It advances the case for an operationally-oriented basic needs concept for technology in such countries. It outlines a simplified planning model incorporating such a strategy. Eight equatio…
