The Problem of Productivity

Grattan, C. Hartley | March 5, 1949 issue

The article presents the book "Foreign Economic Policy for the United States," edited by Seymour E. Harris. The book is a symposium, a form Professor Harris much favors, to which twenty-four experts have contributed. As usual Professor Harris takes his duties very seriously, this time with rather happier results than on other occasions. The book is perhaps the weightiest discussion of U.S. foreign economic policy to be found within a single set of covers. It emerges from this book that both economists and political policy makers radically underestimated the extent of the destruction caused by World War II.
