This is a detailed archive-based study of the economic planning of
the Attlee governments, in which the author seeks to analyse the
interaction between the decisions of central planners and the
micro-economic effects of these decisions. Throughout the book,
Martin Chick pays particular attention to the level, pattern and
quality of fixed capital investment. At the same time, there is a
continuous concern with the struggle between politicians,
economists and industrialists over the mix of pricing mechanisms
and administrative orders which were to be used in this period.
This struggle permeated all discussions over matters such as the
organisation of nationalised industries, the monopoly structure of
nationalised industries, the allocation of resources and the
promotion of higher productivity. The author also asks what impact,
if any, economic planning had on the productivity performance of
the UK economy.
