I do believe that, when all the interests are laid out on the table, there is an
American  attitude, a certain aversion to the spread of government intervention
and  a particular aversion  to this kind of comprehensive,  pseudoscientific
planning, the approach  thatI identify with industrial policy.
                HERBERT  STEIN, Senior Fellow, American  Enterprise Institute
 I am convinced that the greatest industrial policy for the United States is to
 get interest rates down to single digit levels and to do that through monetary
 reform.
                               JACK  F. KEMP, U.S. Representative (R-N.Y.)
 What  we have  in this country is a catchall, grab bag, crazy quilt, hodge-
 podge of individual policies that relate sometimes to industries at large and
 sometimes to individual companies in those industries. But that hodge-podge
 is based on self-interest and not on the national interest.
                                        GARY  HART,  U.S. Senator (D-Colo.)
 What  strikes the historian is not the rapid emergence or swift movement of
 the idea [of industrial policy] but rather its age and stability. The fundamental
 issues involved are at least as old as the nation-state.
                THOMAS   K. McCRAw, professor   of Business Administration,
                                                         Harvard University
 What  people in the threatened class mean  when   they speak of industrial
policy is something to impede, regulate, or dampen the change that they see as
being so threatening . . . not so much concern strictly for fairness, but a very
understandable  reaction of a class that sees itself in decline.
                         JAMES A. FALLOws,  Washington  editor, The Atlantic
 Supply-side economics and  industrial policy are largely outgrowths of right-
 wing and  left-wing ideologies, respectively, and thus . . . also partly out-
 growths of the typical citizen's rational ignorance about public affairs.
                     MANCUR   OLSON,  Distinguished Professor of Economics,
                                                     University of Maryland


What   are the roles of the public and private sectors in fostering economic
growth?  Technological  advance? Sectoral and regional development?  In Part

McCraw,   and  Ellis W. Hawley present cultural and historical perspectives on
industrial policy proposals in the United  States. In Part Two,  Stephen  S.
Cohen,  Serge Halimi,  John Zysman,  Jeffrey A. Hart, Chalmers Johnson, and
Mario  Schimberni   discuss the policies of other industrial nations. Jack F.
Kemp   and Gary Hart give their views of industrial policy in Part Three. In Part
Four Mancur  Olson  analyzes how special interest groups affect the debate, and
in Part Five Hugh   Heclo  and Robert  W.  Russell present the role of U.S.
government   institutions in implementing industrial policy US $12.00
