Abstract:'Political independence', the author - Executive Secretary of the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa - maintains, 'is hollow without economic control'. Drawing upon his experience with the UNECA he explores the implications of that statement for foreign investment in Africa over the Second United Nations Development Decade, the 1970s. In his analysis he presents not only many of the problems which currently confront Liberia, but several of the new approaches which are being employed en route to a solution. Bibl.
