INTERGOVERNMENTAL PLANS AND ACHIEVEMENTS: OECD AND OTHER INTERNATIONAL BODIES Available to Purchase

The title that was printed in the programme—‘OECD and Unesco’—which took me a little by surprise, is at the same time too broad and too constricting. Too broad, because one can say a great deal about intergovernmental planning and co‐operation without ever mentioning an international organization. Too broad also, perhaps, because I have been involved directly only in the OECD programmes and so can only talk about OECD at first hand. Too constricting, because if one introduces international organizations at all there is no justification for stopping at those two: there are a great many inter‐ and non‐governmental bodies interested in information and governments work with all of them.
