Input-Output Analysis And Social Planning, Roger A. Lohmann

Faculty & Staff Scholarship

This article is a proposal for an adaptation of Leontief input-output analysis in economics to uses in community-level social planning.

The method adopted is that of simple historical narration, beginning with ancient times and bringing it down to the present day. This broad approach is necessary so …
