Abstract

We have already compared the disequilibria that are likely to arise during the transition to egalitarian development with the disequilibria that are characteristic of economies engaged in a war. Indeed the concept of a ‘disequilibrium system’ grew out of the wartime experience. This concept also sheds light, however, on the problems that are likely to occur when a country changes from one strategy of development to another, and it is arguable too that the concept may help countries in planning to overcome their transitional problems.
