Notes
This approach is developed in Limits to Growth and in the writings of A. Peccei [1981] and O. Giarini [1980].
See La crise n’est pas ce que l’on croit [Barrère , 1981].
See, for example, his recent article in the Harvard Business Review [1982].
See his recent book Pour une philosophie du nouveau développement [1981].
For example, Samir Amin [1973] and M. Elmandjara.
These observations have been summarized by Victor R. Fuchs in The Service Economy [1968] and in a series of articles by MacMahon and Worswick [1960, 1961].
On this point, see Stef de Jong [1983].
