Abstract

Today we are so mesmerized by globalisation and the World Trade Organisation that development has become a very technical pursuit. It’s no longer a question of creative thinking, or of having a vision and trying to pursue that vision (never mind about its practicalities) which I think
was the spirit of the 1960s and 1970s. There was no limitation on visions then.
