Arrow, President of the IEA from 1983 to 1986.The subject of the Congress was 'The Balance between Indus try and Agriculture in Economic Development'.

The Congress included a number of plenary sessions, but much of the work of the Congress was undertaken in eighteen specialised meetings. The volume of papers was too large for them all to be published, but the fivevolumesin this group,togetherwith avolume on the Indianeconomybeing publishedseparatelyinIndia, represent the major viewpoints expressed.
