Deputy Chairman of Imperial Chemical Industries, Ltd. and Roy Jenkins , m.p.
In the chair, Ely Devons
Professor of Economics
In the University of Manchester
In the recent Labour Party policy statement on future public ownership it was argued that the large firm is now the dominant institution in the modern economy and that in large firms the private shareholder has no further part to play. The speakers discuss the validity of this analysis and the merits of the proposals which stem from it.

Institute of Statistics, University of Oxford
This talk is occasioned by the recent publication of Economic Theory and Underdeveloped Regions by Dr. Gunnar Myrdal. Mr. Hazlewood examines the challenge which the book presents to much current economic theory about underdevelopment, and reflects in particular on the increasing disparities between rich and poor countries resulting from the free play of economic forces.
