Full Description

This volume brings together the proceedings of a conference held at the Institut Europeen d' Administration des Affaires (INSEAD) at Fontainebleau on July 5, 6, and 7, 1982. Summer conferences abound in the Paris region. That it was possible to attract an imposing international cast of economists within walking distance of the historic castle of Fontainebleau and one hour away from central Paris by car during the month of July is nothing especially surprising. But in this case there was a particular motivation for choosing the French site.
