ECONOMIC
ANALYSIS
AND
DEVELOPMENT
PLANNING
(1963)
1
Introductory
Note:
At
the
beginning
of
the
1960,
the
Indonesian
economy
was
in
a
tragic
state.
The
standards
of
living
in
society
were
very
low
and
were
undergoing
setbacks
from
year
to
year.
One
of
the
main
sources
of
this
situation
was
the
strong
government
opinion
at
the
time
that
economic
affairs
were
unimportant.
There
was
also
the
firm
notion
in
government
circles
at
the
time
that
economics
was
completely
useless;
it
was
even
considered
a
cause
of
social
degradation.
There
was
a
strong
view
among
the
public
at
that
time
that
the
science
of
economics
was
totally
useless
textbook
thinking.
Some
even
viewed
this
science
as
something
that
could
harm
the
way
of
life
of
the
people.
In
1962,
I
was
appointed
professor
of
economics
at
the
School
of
Economics,
University
of
Indonesia.
As
normally
practiced
by
colleges
in
Indonesia,
a
new
professor
is
expected
to
deliver
an
inaugural
speech
in
the
relevant
discipline.
The
core
of
my
inaugural
lecture
in
1963
was
that
the
economy
was
important
to
public
welfare
and
had
to
be
built
through
planning.
For
this
development
planning,
economic
analysis
was
required.
This
statement
was
a
stark
contrast
to
the
prevailing
and
dominant
view
among
government
officials
and
a
certain
section
of
the
society.
