The collection of papers presented in this special issue arose out
of two events. The first was the symposium "Escaping Satiation -
Increasing Product Variety, Preference Change and the Demand Side
of Economic Growth" which was held at the Max Planck Institute in
Jena, Germany, in December 1997. The Fritz Thyssen Foundation
provided financial support for this seminal symposium which is
gratefully acknowledged. Wilhelm Ruprecht was of great help in
preparing the symposium and I would like to express my gratitude to
hirn on this occasion. Many stimulating exchanges with hirn over
the past few years while he was a research associate at the
Institute working on long term changes in consumption convinced me
of the relevance and importance of this problem for understanding
modem economic growth. I also owe thanks to many people who
encouraged me to go ahead with the symposium, among them Stanley
Metcalfe, Carl Christian von Weizsacker, and also Ehud Zuscovitch,
who died so unexpectedly last year."
