The New Industrial State by John Kenneth Galbraith Professor of Economics at Harvard University
3: Control of Prices and People
If effective planning-either by the state or by the modern corporation-is incompatible with random movements by prices and the free choices of consumers, it is necessary that our decisions about purchases should be managed. Professor Galbraith first explains the theory and then examines these techniques of persuasion and control.
Repeated: Monday, 7.30 (Third)
These lectures are being printed in ' The Listener'
