"The Economics of Planning" (book)

"The Economics of Planning" explores how societies organize their resources and development through centralized or coordinated planning, often contrasting this with market-driven approaches. It examines the economic principles, advantages, and challenges of planning—such as efficiency, allocation, and societal goals—highlighting how planners aim to achieve economic stability, growth, and equality. The book offers analytical tools and historical examples to understand when and how planning can be effective, addressing issues of decision-making, resource distribution, and policy implementation in both planned and market economies.
