330 | |a The region which lags behind the rest of the country in economic growth and suffers from above average unemployment, is a problem which is now widespread interest in a number of countries. Scotland provids a good example of this problem in the British economy, and the aim of this book is to subject the economic performance of Scotland to close examination. The progress of the Scottish economy from 1951 to 1960 is assessed in quantitative terms, and for this purpose Dr McCrone provides estimates of Scottish gross domestic product, income from employment, gross profits and many other basic economic statistics. Special chapters are devoted to output and investment in manufacturing industry and to personal income and expenditure. Wherever possible comparisons are drawn with the United Kingdom as a whole and with other regions of the British economy. The results show the extent to which the Scottish economy has lagged behind the United Kingdom, especially during the second half of the decade. The industrial composition of the economy is analysed in comparison with other regions and the performance of individual industries assessed. As a return on investment, Scotland's economic growth is shown to be at least as good as the United Kingdom's; but investment has been well below the British level and not adequate to generate the growth required. Dr McCrone believes strongly that a vast improvement in the provision of regional statistics in required if the problem of regional development is to be properly understood and satisfactory policies formulated. This book tries to fill some of these gaps and to show why such an improvement is so essential. It is of importance not only for itself but as an example of the type of study which is needed. |2 Editeur. | ||
