The basic cause is stated to be the failure to invest in the modernisation of the British capital equipment and the consequent loss of competitive power. This failure, in turn, is seen to be the result of Government policies which, for the sake of a variety of short-term aims, sacrificed the future by deliberately inhibiting investment. 410 0$aRoutledge revivals. 607 $aGreat Britain$xEconomic policy$y1945-1964 607 $aGreat Britain$xEconomic policy$y1964-1979 607 $aGreat Britain$xEconomic policy$y1979-1997 676 $a338.941 700 $aPollard$b Sidney$0120978 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910822840603321 996 $aThe wasting of the British economy$93913542 997 $aUNINA
