Twenty-five years ago a number of geographers had spent various periods abroad in uniform, and we, in common with many others, were anxious to put this involuntary field experience to a more permanent use that would also display practicality and involvement relative to the problems of the time. We also had the clear view that geography could and ought to offer a novel approach to specific problems of economic and social development in …
