Economic bulletin for Africa: vol. X, no.1

Abstract

The tenth year of publication of the Economic Bulletin for Africa corresponds to the year of the launching of the Second United Nations Development Decade, 1970. There was considerable anxiety in the last half of the First Development Decade over the mixed performance in the developing world with respect to the targets set. It was felt that much more advance analysis and planning would be necessary for the Second Development Decade if successful performance with respect to targets were to be achieved.
